7″ x 10″
Watercolor on Lanaquarelle
This is a portrait of my husband Greg. I used the materials with the exception of the paper in the Sketchbox Watercolor Portaiture Special Edition Box and watched a lesson with portraiture artist Joanna Barnum of Maryland.
First, I made a swatch of the colors in the kit.
Using a photo as a reference, I sketched out the drawing.

Layering paint drying in between layers:
First coat of background paint:
Added several more layers for the shading and the background until I felt that it was finished.
I am really happy with this painting!
