Description Another dabble into watercolors! I still have 0 idea what I'm doing... But oh well! XD I hope I'll eventually figure out a style for myself in this medium...Practice, practice, practice! Does this drawing make you think or feel anything specific? I'd love to know, so leave a response in the comments below if you wish!

_______

Mediums: Watercolors, Prismacolor pens and Sakura Gel liner in white

Stunning colorful piece! I love how you did that vibrant coloring, it brights!
It brings me opposite feelings, yellow and pink bring joy while jer white eyes and the dark violet are so dramatic.

Love the expression! And the watercolor splash-dripping!!!
To me, it says :"Are you mind-blown yet?"

Can you just, bring me your skillz.

It kinda makes me think of like, this punk rock girl who looks confident on the outside, but is nervous on the inside and likes to express herself a lot.

WAAAAAAAAAAH SO AMAZING !! *O*
May I ask, what kind of paper do you for your watercolor drawings ? o.O

Paa-H In reply to AjkaSketch [2015-09-08 22:59:34 +0000 UTC]

Thank yoooou! Hehe! I use Daler and Rowney watercolor paper for the smaller paintings (9x12") and Canson watercolor paper for the big ones (15x20") ! I find that Canson can handle a bit more abuse than D&R though! Β

You're quite welcome, I'm glad I could help with something! Watercolors are such a difficult medium to handle *_* I made another drawing yesterday with them and I was like "noooooooooooo, don't go THERE" half of the time (am I the only one who speaks to my things when I draw? XD ...) Β

Wow that's amazing Β 
And for me, it kinda of reminds me of the weak being suppressed by the strong. But then the galaxy effect and the way you drew her seems like she's able to overcome it... Never mind me though Β 

Anyway, could you please tell me the brand of the watercolors? I'm buying a new set but I don't have anything specific in mind. Please help me Β

Paa-H In reply to PersephoneKyuubi [2015-09-08 17:52:51 +0000 UTC]

That's a really good interpretation, and it's actually close to what I had in mind Yay!

For the watercolors I use, I have tubed ones XD Though I wish I had swatches...Anyways, the brand is Van Gogh I'm sure you can find it in any art store! The colors are very vibrant and they work well together!
