Description Trying my hand at watercolors...I'm not very skilled with the blending process and all that. This is mostly watercolor with a little bit of white acrylic and a little color pencil for skin tones. Also some nailpolish for the sparkly effect.

Thanks to and her image for use of the lovely model for this piece.
Also to for her many useful watercolor tutorials

Really good. The nailpolish () looks great on the blue. I think it looks much better than the reference photo.

Thanks so much! I usually use sparkly acrylic paint unless I don't have the color sparkles I need.

Beautiful Terrauh
I would love to have a go at water colours one day I think you did a great job on this.

Thanks! I'm still trying to get to the point where i can use them for the whole painting...of course it might help if I actually bought the paint tubes and not just the watercolor pencils and crayons.
