Description
Well, my momma told me about this dress from a dream she had and even made a sketch of it, so I decided to bring it to life. Sheβs a pretty good fashion designer, huh? June 2008.Related content

That explains why the detail is so good!! I thought it might be a 9 by 12 inches
Theres still hope! Wow where do does one buy 8 feet of watercolor paper?

No, eight inches across by two feet. You can buy three feet of watercolor paper at hobby lobby, but that's the biggest I know about.

It is lovely... I have gotten inspiration from my dreams a time or two. They never turn out just like I want them, but are interesting none the less.

Sadly, my dreams tend to be things that are going to happen, not cool images and so I don't remember them until they happen and it's a total deja vu. I like seeing dream imagery from others though. It's like a window into their mind somehow.

Nice wet-in-wet in the background. Like the transparency in her sleeves (lots of rumply little highlights!), but her arms don't quite match up. :s I can see where you had a little trouble on the left one, trying to keep it light when you were doing the dark portion of the background--ever try using frisket/latex masking? I do a lot of watercolor and have only recently started to really use it in any amount, it's really a lifesaver.

I hate using masking film, but so far I haven't been able to find liquid frisket to even buy. It's not as noticeable in the original, but that's not much of an excuse, is it?

I've never used film, but I can well imagine what a pain that is, cutting and all. :s Hm, wish I could advise you better, but I have no idea what stores you have across the pond. I pick mine up at my usual art supply store, but I've seen it in craft and department stores, too. If you look to buy online, I've used both Incredible White Mask and Shiva brands, and I prefer the Shiva.

Well, thanks for telling me which brand you like best. I've never used film before, but masking fluid is a pain to me. I have to order my supplies through the mail sometimes because of where I live. Thanks for the tip though!
