IF: Shades.

Pin It

This week’s Illustration Friday topic: Shades! I could not have found a more perfect reference photo than this contest-winning photograph taken by the radically talented Pam over at Pieces of Me.  Dabbling in watercolors again -- I'd love to know what ya think!

Wow, it's amazing! The details are great, as well as the reflection in the glasses!

I'm not very good at doing portraits, but this makes me want to practice more!

Beautiful work....I always envy people who can control watercolor so nicely. The almost monocromatic palette is really lovely too. Very, very nice piece!
