Geisha in Watercolor

This Geisha in Watercolor is from a tutorial by Karen Campbell for Awesome Art School.

I used my light pad to trace the image as required onto a page in my Canson Watercolor Book, using a Graphgear 1000 Pentel Pencil. She was painted using both a Prima Complexion Palette and a Winsor Newton Palette in which I added two tube colors: Payne's Gray and Lamp Black. I used a Micron Pen for outlines and branches. I used a bit of a Gelly Roll Pen for a few highlights, but the highlights in her hair is where I left the paper white.

I'm really happy that I finally got around to working on this image!
