Description
Created on 24.9.2015Watercolors, watercolor pencils, white gel pen
Size A4
My reference picture was www.pinterest.com/pin/38428378…
This time I had some troubles with the paper (type: Koh-I-Noor, popAquarell; watercolor pad).
I used the same type already three times and was very happy with it.
But only this time I completely wet / moisten the paper with clear water first and then added colors for making the background. After a while I started to see "little dots" on the paper. For this picture it's ok, because I have been looking for a vintage style look.
But I really need to investigate what went wrong.

The composition is great and I love the flowers in her hair. She looks sweet and though there's nothing wrong with a purple colour scheme, I think that putting purple in her lip colour too takes away from the picture somewhat. Not a big deal, just my personal opinion.

I thought about the lip color...but honestly not even I can tell you why I colored it that way Sounds weird, but it's true.
Many times I think about how I want to color a drawing, but then I end up with something completely different. I start with some part of the drawing and then continue further. By this one I think I wanted to draw just a black line, but then ended up coloring the whole lip.
Thank you for your comment

Oh, I see. (*＾ワ＾*) Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me and I know the feeling. Sometimes the picture just comes out different than what I meant at the beginning :b

Thank you.
It was my first try at a child portrait and with a vintage feeling. I also tried some new color combination.

This is really great! May I ask which white gel pen do you use?

Just one more thing...
With the white gel pen were made only those fine white lines. The much bigger parts of white (the ones above her head and on the left and right side of her) were concealed with masking fluid...so those parts are non-colored.
