Process

So I thought I would show you some of my process with my painting this week. I decided to work harder on the facial features of my grandmother. As you can see, I grid out the original image, then duplicate it on the watercolor paper. I am just not good enough yet to do it by sight, and I find that it helps keep my proportions in check. Frankly, I think that facial features and water are the two most difficult things to portray in watercolors. Anyway, I am working hard today on the under image for tomorrow's painting.
