Portrait Design

I watched a video, Polly Hammett, Design with the Figure.  So this is a picture of my granddaughter Jill.  I made a black background and a black shirt.  I will paint it again with different combinations.  The face was painted with Opera and then wiped off.  I am not using the same watercolor paper as Polly does, so it doesn't wipe off as well.

  1. I just bought this dvd. I tried painting on Bristol and it didn't wipe off well. Still, it looked very painterly, and I loved the result. Like yours too.
