Artist's Comments

playing with watercolours:
watercolour pencils,
biro,
poster paints,
the wrong kind of paper (went all wrinkly and peeling)

a friend once said to me in an art lesson: "the hardest thing to paint must be skin, cos it's all different colours". she was right... but that's what makes it fun;)

wanted to finish this last year (:lol:) but it was taking a while and thought i'd polish it off today:) so technically, this is my first portrait of 2008 and my last portrait of 2007!

4-5 hours in total
download is possible for details, but not necessary.
i hope you like it!:hug: happy new year everyone!!

thankyou!
ooh no it isn't jessica alba, but i can see what you mean! she's a model in a boots magazine (yay free) so i don't think she's quite that famous:)

the paper... i even knew how wrong it was for watercolours and i STILL used it! and it went all wrinkly/bally. suppose it adds texture though:LOL:
