Watercolor Face

 Sorry it's sideways! For the first step, I just drew a face like I normally would, but without the shadind. I colored in the nostrils and eyebrows and eyes.

Then, I traced my drawing and just did the outlines.

















I colored in the outlines and added a flower. I used light pink for light shading and red for dark shading. I also used white for the highlight on the lips and if the shaing was too dark. I also added the words "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

Lilies and Fashion Illustration

So I'm working on two things at the same time. One is a French girl fashion illustration and one is a picture of lilies. The lilies will be done in penciland the French girl will be done in watercolor. I'm using one of the greatest tricks ever in both of them: spraying the drawing with hairspray.

The Skeleton

This is an original poem that I wrote.

The Skeleton

I see the skeleton
Who are you skeleton?
Were you an artist, a teacher, a stay at home mom?
Are you my ancestor?
I see the skeleton.

What did you think, skeleton?
What were your opinions?
Ideas?
Emotions?
I see the skeleton.

The skeleton is behind a wooden glass case
Trapped and there for all to see
People laugh and make jokes
but you were a human.
I see the skelton
We all see the skeleton.

Leilani Joy

Leilani Joy is my favorite artist! This is just one of her paintings. I chose this one because it was the first painting of hers that I saw, it is one of my favorites, and it seems to be her favorite. I found her Youtube channel when I saw her video of a diy gift idea, then I saw all of her painting videos.
