Description lineart by =sharem . I did this over about 6 days with Prang and Crayola watercolors; the background and numerous touchups were done on photoshop. This is the only watercolor piece that i have done that does not have major flaws, i.e. purple skin (from bleeding eyes [and yes, i mean paint]) the shadows are very abrupt, but thats because i didnt realize how dark my shadows were until they died(i mean dRied) . lots of thanks to ~Saerasi for yelling and hitting me over the head with a water bucket when i attemted to paint her face (not sure why im thanking her, exept that i avoided a detention ^^) this is my first watercolor, so please critiqe in the section

I like the softness of the skin and how you did the wings. The hair is pretty good as well. The background is good, but I think that the bright colors do overwhelm her. If it was a lighter shade, or maybe a little paler, it probably would fit better.

Other than that, I really do like what you did to my lineart...^_^

*is scared of the critique section* I'll stay away from the scary box...but seriously, really great job on this one!!! 100x better than my watercolor stuff ^^ i like the wings especially. If you don't teach me to shade skin like that I will have to hit you over the head with the water bucket again!!!

but when i do the shading this wierd thing happens and theres this ring of concentrated shadow around the color, how did you get it to shade smoothly?
