I wanted to use a different color pallet….jewel tones. Teals, blues, purples, pinks. The initial pink was Way-Too-Strong, so I went in and took a lot of the watercolor pigment off (watered it down). Which ended up being the plan for the entire picture. Apply the watercolor strong initially, then take it off. I liked how the pigment remained dark at the borders. I ended up putting a lot more detail into the face….which may not have been the best choice.
But it was an interesting choice. This picture kind of grows on me, if I don’t expect it to look like the original.
