This card was painted with Brea Reese Glitter Watercolors.  These are VIBRANT inks and definitely strong ... a little goes a long way.  I absolutely adore the sparkle they bring to every project.  I used my white Posca marker to highlight here and there.

I LOVE adding spatters to watercolor ... such an easy way to add interest and dimension.  I especially like it with the 'rain' pouring down.
I continued working with my Brea Reese Glitter Watercolors and focused on trying to create a LIGHT, pastelish piece.  Unsaturated, light palettes are a HUGE challenge for me ... I keep working on them though.  {smiles}
I came incredibly close to trashing this piece when the purple 'rain' ran right down her face and I couldn't fix it ... I didn't though and am glad.  I kind of like that it feels like real life ... some days the rain and struggles of life do leave us just like this.
I used pan watercolors on this card.  This card was SUPER fun to make and I LOVED mark making with my watercolors and my Posca marker.
I did color all of their skin tones with Copic markers.  I have not mastered skin palettes with watercolor ... yet.  LOL!

Matilda is a happy little gal ... she always makes me smile.   Snail's Pace is an oldie but goodie.  This has been a great set for my watercolor practice.
This is the card I'm going to mail by ATC with.  I just couldn't stop swapping heads once I started!
I've been trying to reacquaint myself with watercolor techniques and that's what this card was all about.  Lots of practice.  I used regular salt on the card background to get the funky look ... I forget that it seems to have a more powerful reaction to the wet paint than chunkier sea salt does.  I used my white Posca marker to add highlights and doodles.
