watercolors

9" X 9"
Arches CP 300lb WC paper
Done for the PADT challenge.
I have not painted humans for quite a while, so indeed it was a long process and quite a challenge to do a copy of Vermeer's The Lacemaker.
I made a mistake of using untested permanently staining (bright yellow) color and as a result, I lost my "white" for highlight on her collar. Nonetheless, I'm quite satisfied in the end to have this lacemaker painting to call my own.
Une merveilleuse interprétation... Il n'est pas simple de réaliser une telle aquarelle, je te félicite ! Un travail aussi précieux que celui de la dentellière...
