Description
My entry for =temiel 's Masked Arcana Contest . :thumb168762817:I used ~LunaNYXstock 's stock for the curtain.
Pencil,watercolours on A3 paper.That's why the edges are slightly blurry,it was a little big for my scanner. :/

Wow! How do you make your washes looks so soft and silky? It's beautiful! ^^ I'm in love with the color and texture of the curtain, and her hair! You say you only use 1 - 3 washes in a painting?

Achen089 In reply to Theophilia [2010-07-19 11:36:46 +0000 UTC]
Yes.I wish i had the patience to wait and add more layers,because i'm sure everything would look much better with more tones and shadows but i'm very impatient and usually stop at 3,sometimes even 2 (e.g here skin and hair)
But of course,i'm pleased to hear it still looks good and that you liked it - thank you!

You are very welcome! I really admire your art. But still, the incredible detail you can get away with with just two layers....

I love the contrast of the warm red curtain against the cool blue of the mask and her eyes. Her pale hair and skin also makes for a nice constrast against the darker background. As always your attention to detail is simply marvellous - the pearls, the twists in the maks trimmings, the wall paper, the curtain decorations and that slim hand holding the curtain up against her body.

Thank you so much for your lovely,detailed comment!It always makes me glad to hear that colours and details work nicely in my paintings because i have to admit it's something i usually have trouble with (especially choosing colours,matching them etc).So,i'm super pleased whenever they turn out looking good.
