Very happy this photo was finally picked!! I think I've voted on it almost every month and always envisioned it as a watercolor piece. I wanted to keep the paint less opaque and more soft. The gold paint looks soooo nice in real life, the photos don't do it justice. I don't do traditional painting much anymore and it was surprisingly relaxing.

Materials:
-Grumbacher watercolors
-Paper ---> "Hahnemuhle Toned Gray Watercolor Book A6" (4.1 x 5.8 inches).
-Gold paint ---> Kuretake Gansai Tambi Starry 6 Color Set
-Tape ---> Christmas tape from Hobby Lobby
-Pen ---> SAKURA Pigma Micron 0005 (.20mm)

Edited in Clip Studio Paint. Had to edit the edges since the paper was curling. Implemented some minimal color balance and tried to get the photo straighter (the tape isn't really crooked *facepalm).
