I had this vision of this stoic figure standing in a field that swayed back and forth, gracefully with the breeze in a state of tranquility. It was an image that fleshed out into this piece so fluidly, and I thought it would be perfect to experiment a little with double-exposure. It's what spurred me to try negative watercolouring, a technique that I've seen here and there, but never really bothered to try out as it seemed quite time consuming. Aaaand boy, was it worth it.
Surprisingly, it was actually quite therapeutic and relaxing to do negative watercolouring, and the outcome effect paid off! Of course, it wouldn't be complete with blush metallic

I love how clean you watercolors are Oh my gosh! I love all that white space in thee back, it just makes her pop out more with her bright hair and dark shirt. I also love the textures in the circle and on those leaves, it looks particularly good with the metallic paints.
I also loved watching you video process! It was amazing to watch you work c:

Aw geez, thanks a tonne pal! Sometimes i wish my work wasn't so clean though, I really admire people who can paint so expressively and loosely, and I try to do it alot, but naturally my tendency is to revert. I MUST PRACTICE MORE!
Glad you liked the video, I promise to make more
