PRACTICE PAINTING: FACE 1

    An attempt to approach watercolors differently from how I used to do it. From the initial sketch to application of coloring with water. I used a mechanical pencil to do a very light 10 minute contour drawing of his face. I varied the colors and tried to put most of the contrast within the features and only suggest the shadows. The picture was just a random face on the internet. Total time it took was probably 1.5 hrs. I thoroughly enjoyed this as my usual graphite sketches take so much longer to finish!
