Watercolour Journal #4 - Claudette Colbert

This is turning into a "Face a Day" thing or something. I don't think the word "journal" is quite right...

Not that I ever keep things like that up.



The nose pooled with water a little - I tried to save it, but it ended up looking a little odd. I like how the bangs turned out, but I wish that the sides of her hair turned out the same way... I think it's because of the way I used the pencils differently in those areas. The headband was actually a braid in the photo.

Things I am learning: it's difficult to get a colour to stay uniform in large areas! Hence the weird hat on WC and blobby turtleneck on Claudette. Perhaps I need a bigger brush.
