Description
Finally finished it! Think the gold leaf was the longest and trickiest process I dealt with. I like the end result of the piece, just not how yellow the background came out because of the scanner.Materials Used:
watercolors
gold paint
gold leaf
watercolor paper (11 x 14 inches)
EDIT: Updated the scan so it's not all yellow-y
EDIT: (As of April 25th, 2010)
Deep apologies to and her wonderful photographer who contacted me to let me know that I had forgotten to notify them of using her shot as my inspiration for this piece. So thank you so much for bringing it to my attention.

That's actually my inspirational piece
had messaged me to let me know I had forgotten to note her in my description (a terrible oversight on my part) but I've apologized to her and made the correction.

Yes actually.. like I had mentioned before I had forgotten to credit her in the description. Luckily she messaged me to let me know so I have her credited now and have made an official apology to her for my oversight (several apologies to both her and Jon, her photographer). Sorry for the confusion.

It's actually based on a piece by I had forgotten to note her in my description until she messaged me.. so I've been able to link her piece to the description. Sorry for the confusion.

Gorgeous! I love how you use watercolors and how the gold flowers in her kimono go to the black collar. Very chic. <3
