Iskamontero in the garden

Here's one I've been working on for a challenge on Redbubble.





Watercolour, 10" by 12" crop from an original size of quarter sheet, on Fabriano Artistico HP paper, which is a rather smooth surface. Was going for a real sunny feel with this one.

The reference photo was supplied by Iskamontero herself, for a portrait challenge on Redbubble (in the Bubbler Portraits group).

  6. Thanks Linda. Believe me, they don't seem simple when I'm painting them! Nice to know they don't look overdone.
