Hello! It's time for a new Watercolor Wednesday Challenge. Stacy has chosen a very interesting video for us to follow. I enjoyed watching how the artist adds lights and darks to his painting. I tried! LOL, I really tried. My first attempt was the best and it was on my cheaper paper but I really didn't get in any light in the hair. The 2nd attempt was a total flop. Since my heart is in WI with a dear SCS friend I had no patience to try again. My dear friend's husband is currently in heart failure. My husband and I have spent time with them both and our hearts are just breaking for them. Wishing to follow through with a sample for this challenge, I switched to a stamp. I hated it last night and thought I might have to give up this week but my husband said it was good. I tried no line watercolor with this. I worked on using the colors in the video. I just didn't have the patience to bring the hair to life. So, I stamped the image again with dark ink and let the stamp do the work.
Thanks for looking! We hope you join us this week. I am looking forward to seeing what everyone creates!

Angie, I love this and I see highlights in the hair. I love her hair style....so pretty and I love that you put pearls in her hair. It's a beautiful card. I will put your friend in my prayers. I'm so sorry this is happening. I know you are stressed. Hugs

So sorry about your friend. The time you've spent with them must be such a blessing. I'm glad you were able to create this wonderful image. The hair looks lovely. Love the pearls.
