Portrait of Sheila - watercolor portrait
It's always fun and unpredictable to paint on Yupo and this little portrait (about 10 x 8") was no exception! Not really my thing, but watercolor is exciting to do every now and then. My brush was actually a 'round' for oil or acrylic - kind of a no-no, I guess, but I had a good time. I worked from an old drawing - one of my collection of thousands (okay, maybe just hundreds) - I spent a lot of time in my life attending drawing groups - hence my collection of drawings, which often have another life as a painting many years later. I finally had to get rid of most of these drawings and just keep the photos of them on my computer. How modern is that?! Thanks for stopping by!

I can't imagine doing a portrait in watercolor but using yupo would be even more difficult!!! I love this portrait Connie! I zoomed on it and her face is flawless! Wonderful work!!!!
Thank you so much, Hilda - it was fun, but not doing another one soon!
