Pretty Girl

This "Pretty Face" is from a You Tube tutorial by Karen Campbell, to show how to use gelatos and how to solve an issue while working on a portrait.

I followed Karen with a Graphgear 1000 Pentel Pencil as she drew this lovely girl. She's on a page in my Canson XL cold press watercolor book. I used a couple of Molotow liners over the pencil lines and shaded her with a blending stump. I painted her with both Prima and Jane davenport watercolors. 

I tried the Faber Castelle Gelatos, but no matter what I worked with, they did not blend. I'm happy they show as much as they do.

I'm really happy how this girl came out!
