Pink Frill - Woman Posing

Pink Frill

This particular painting is one of my favorites. I feel that I was able to accomplish the contours of the body and the shading quite successfully.

The garment is quite pale - an uneventful shade of grey.

The body has lots of life and colors. The skirt is black ink on watercolor which gives the effect of a knit.

I call this Pink Frill because it is so unexpected. Where did pink come from...

Watercolor and ink on 100% cotton paper - 30 cm by 40 cm

Prom Dress in Watercolor


 
This watercolor painting of a woman in fancy dress is definitely not what you expect for the prom yet that is exactly what it reminded me of.

In these days when a beautiful young and impressionable young lady go to the prom does she need protection?

In this dress all of the beautiful lines are highlighted and still she is protected behind what seems to be armor.

The blues and the purples and the greens are just beautifully laid down on paper.

The technique is watercolor paints and watercolor pencils on high quality cotton paper.

Walking Woman in Watercolor


                                                Walking Woman



 The woman is in motion walking toward ... she is exposed and the overcoat is there to protect her in case of need. This watercolor painting holds intrigue and poise.

This pose reminds me of Sophie's Choice

The technique is watercolors and ink. Notice how well defined the contours are and the intricate details of the panties.
