Meet Billie Eilish in Mixed Media


 
 This painting is from a tutorial in a Kaleidoscope Course hosted by Tamara Laporte. This is a high contrast mixed media portrait of the singer Billie Eilish.

I'm not familiar with this singer and it took most of the day to paint this tutorial. It was a challenge to paint, but I love how it came out!

I used Jane Davenport watercolors, along with assorted colored pencils and a few pens, on Canson 140 lb. cold press watercolor paper. I used my light pad to transfer the tracing to my watercolor paper.
