Description
Very quick painting, and the speed led to some of the shadows bleeding where I didn't want them, but overall I am very pleased with this lifedrawing sketch. The model was so beautiful.No mature warning because there aren't any scary bits showing.

I do like the clean unwavering simple contour line contrasted with the delicate washes - simply beautiful. Barrie

Thank you! I'd like to try more with this style - the ink line adds so much clarity to a loose wash.

Beautiful! Simple, really pretty. This is so organic, it makes me think of fruit, almost.

nice! not sure how i feel about the linework, but the watercolor itself is really well done.
you seem to be pretty damn good at the medium in general. that stuff destroys me.

I loved the linework until I messed up on her wrist and upper arm, and that kinda brought the whole thing down.
The thing I've found about watercolor is that you don't control it, you predict it. If you can figure out which effects you get if you do this-and-such, then you can use that effect... otherwise it's all (un)happy accidents.
Also, use good paper and lots of paint. It took me so long to learn that.
