Finally! I actually completed a new piece for Illustration Friday before Friday!!!
I don't know about you, but I get caught up in memories sometimes. So, for the theme "Yesterday", I chose to feature a woman recalling memories of her youth, triggered by an evening spent looking in her yearbook.
Thanks for stopping by to check out my artwork. I haven't used watercolor in a while, because I am still new at it. I like how quickly I can lay the colors down. It goes much faster than colored pencil! Let me know what you think by leaving a comment. I sure do appreciate it!
Very nice Laura, this is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelli! Appreciate you taking a look.
DeleteLove all of the details. I especially like how you can see the water through the weeds...I imagine them blowing in the breeze allowing me to see the water.
ReplyDeleteWell, I wasn't sure about the grass/weeds. I had used a resist to keep the highlights and didnt remove it until I had already painted in the grasses. I'm still new at watercolor. I'm glad you like the effect, though I didn't intend it! Thanks Samantha!
DeleteHello! Great interpretation for "Yesterday!" Hope there are many more watercolors in your "tomorrow's!" :o)
ReplyDeleteThank you Michele! I plan on doing many more. Thanks for the encouragement.
DeleteThank you Jane. I enjoyed doing this picture. I appreciate that you left a comment! Thank you for letting me know that it looks right. I am not always sure about the results.
