Sorry that this was so late. I hope you like it!

I decided to do something different and use analog watercolors. While I appreciate the ease of using digital watercolors, nothing compares to the full sensory experience of the real thing. There is something about feeling the roughness of the paper and thickness of the paint through the brush, hearing the plips of water and the scraping of the brush on the paper. Feeling the pressure is nice, too.

Oh, it was totally okay you

Oh, it was totally okay you were late! I'm a patient one now, I've practiced it quite a lot. Eye

But Violet looks so amazing! It's like an old painting of a little The Forest fawn! Really, it was hard to think this was done by digital watercolours... Because she looks so real! I really thank you for drawing Violet! Smiling

I'm so happy you like

I'm so happy you like it!

Using real watercolors makes it a little more difficult to control my strokes, but in a way, it's a good way to develop my discipline in not being such a control freak.

Again, thank you!

*Nods* Anyways,

Anyways, watercolours... For something, real watercolours are hard for me. I couldn't... Just draw with it the right way. I always do something wrong with it, I mean, my colour runs all loose over paper and the picture's then ruined. x.x

And they are too wet for me, too.
That's why I prefer gouaches. xD But I really should learn how to properly draw with watercolours, I mean, most artists think better of them than the gouaches...
