Despite I am more Tom boy model since I was a child, but because of mine at first huge love for fairy tales and than later for SF, there was this other side of me, in love with romantic dresses and moments where women were beautiful in some more romantic way.
And from early childhood, there were two sides of drawings I made, sketching cartoon characters like some women warriors and other dressed in romantic outfits.
Recently that romantic moment woken up and than this Anoinettes started appearing in my watercolors.
First I made only sketch of a woman, but looking into that blank background something was missing. Tried out few of flowers patterns and that was it. More drawing :)
Same way previous ones were made, watercolors were applied on hair and dress with large amounts of water.
Afterwards when it dried, came work on skin and body parts.
Now came question, how to make or what to do with that background. So, took out golden acrylic ink that allows to be covered with watercolor and goes out on the surface.
But, during applying of ink I changed my mind of adding watercolor over it.
In the end, when inking was done, it felt like adding more on background will only kill all the other good parts.
So I left it like this, and finally became satisfied with result.
Watercolor was made on Hahnemuhle Bamboo mixed media 300gr paper, one that became my favorite.
Cheep and very good for watercolors.
Hope you like this new lady :)
