French Cutie Mixed Media

 

I redesigned one of my digital images from my child digital file. Now she is a French Cutie! She is one of several digital images I bought at Etsy from Pizot.

I drew this image using a Graphgear Pentel Pencil on Fabriano 140 lb. hot press watercolor paper. As I drew her using  my original drawing, I changed her clothes. After she was fully dressed I added a background to the drawing, placing her in front of the Eiffel Tower.

I outlined the composition with a variety of fine liner pens (not water-soluble). I painted the girl first using Prima and Jane Davenport watercolors. To begin painting the background, I brushed clear water in the sky area and painted a light wash of blue. I used both watercolor sets to complete the painting. I added some Blackwing pencil for shading, smearing it with a paper blending stump.

I'm so happy to be using what I've learned to have fun with my art.
