Description
This drawing was for training.I'm currently working on a watercolor picture for a rather interesting little project of mine, but as I didn't want to mess up everything, I decided to paint this picture first, for practice. So I tried a couple new things in this drawing, like using salt for the background for example.
I'm rather happy about how the whole thing turned out. Except the colors - too much pink! XD (I'm not really used to work with that color). Tell me what you think about it... ^_^
(Do I need to explain that I wanted to draw something complicated with a lot of details? >__>)
Time spent: About 6 hours I'd say (really more than usual!)
I used watercolors, masking gum, salt, dark sepia ink pen, and gold ink pen.

I think the colors work out really well with this. There isn't too much pink at all. It really goes with the color of her skin, and then the background really highlights the rest of her. I love it!

Thank you very much for the advice! ^^
Now I look back at it, I realize I made some big mistakes with the proportions, but I'm glad to hear I did well with the colors! It was one of my first tries at doing watercolors, plus working with a color I'm not used to (pink), so I was really afraid it would be messed up. Thank you for telling me it's not!

Ton style a sacrément évolué depuis les premiers dessins que tu as postés !
Même si tu n'es pas satisfaite des couleurs, le rendu général est super. Ca vallait la peine d'y passer 6 heures.

Merci beaucoup! ^^ ça me fait très plaisir d'entendre ça. C'est toujours bien de voir qu'on évolue! Au sujet des couleurs, je m'inquiétais surtout parce que j'ai plutôt l'habitude de travailler par "duos" de couleurs, pour équilibrer. Là, c'est vraiment très... rose. Je suis bien contente de voir que c'est réussi quand même! ^_^
