More practice................

This is another practice drawing using the Stabilo black pencil and titanium white paint. I used a very difficult image as a "model". It is one of my favorite postcards in my collection of a French woman. She's kind of sassy I think :)

But; one of the challenges, I had, is I tried this on canvas paper and it wasn't taking the paint very well so I had to improvise and use some oil pastels and lots of water when adding the paint. I decided to "color" this up a little around the background.

I am pleased, so far, with what I'm doing; I still hope to be able to loosen up more but know that will come with the "3 p's".

Later on, in the day, I'm going to try working on one using Misty's formula for skin tones with more paint. Wish me luck!

I hope you all had a good weekend; it surely went fast. Thinking of all!

Much love - Marilyn xxoo
