Hanneke

[Hans]

Here my rendering of Hanneke in watercolors. As usual I made some preliminary drawings and photographs when she posed for our group first (see the relative thread in the Drawing forum if you are interested), followed by this watercolor in my studio. No pencil drawing was made by me on the watercolorpaper and I "went in" directly with my brushes. The paper is Hahnemuhgle 30 * 40 cm.
Thanks for passing by.

You are drawing with your brush instead of a pencil. That means you have a good understanding of the contours and darks and lights of the face. Looks good.

Great. Lovely expression.

Excellent wc, Hans. You managed to capture a great expression too!

Really well done. I also love using that kind of paper.

Beautiful and in direct watercolor. I'm smiling and intrigued.

Wow! Lovely portrait. And, I like the expression that you have captured.

 

[KreativeK]

This is so good!

 

[Hawkmoth]

Fantastic, and painted with no guide drawing - very inspirational for me. I too like the expression. It looks very natural.

I can only second the words of everyone else.
