Day 87: (Tues 3/28) WATERCOLOR. :)

Yep it’s Iraville again, and such a cute tutorial. The great one on the screen in the picture, that’s hers. Mine is on paper. This one actually took me two evenings. I had a lot of problems with this. Masking fluid (also called FRISKET. Yeah.) gave me a lot of trouble again. However I may have solved this issue… I ordered a ruling pen, and supposedly these things really help with fine lines. (We shall see. In one to three weeks.) Still, I love this one and am happy to have it in my collection of sketches. I’d like to be able to draw like this on my own soon…. (sighs wistfully)

Day 83: (Fri 3/24) watercolor… a new style! Pearfleur on youtube.

Adorable tutorial by pearfleur on youtube. I love their little pale reflections.
