Another painting finished at Animazement 2010. He's kind of concerned about something.. D:

Watercolor and white ink on watercolor paper.

Hey, whoa, I got DD'd while I was away at Dragon*Con D:

Thank you very much for that, and for all of your comments! A lot of you have asked similar questions, so I will try to explain a little bit about the painting process I used and about the white ink either here or in an entry... One day I'll try a tutorial, but I'm not very good at those;;

For the moment, if you'd like to know, most of my watercolor technique is based on the teachings of Lian Zhen ( [link] <-- his page here), who is a -huge- inspiration to me. I can only hope to be as skilled as he is one day... He has published a number of books, I recommend them highly.

Also, you can credit :iconpu-sama: for introducing me to Doctor PH Martin's Pen White ink, which is what I used to do the highlights/white lines on this picture.

More later!

This is so cute.

I haven't tried the white gel pens yet. It's on my list of To-do's. I've still suffered through preserving all of the whites of the paper. They look fun whenever I've seen them used. I do wonder though, if they are bright white and completely cover colored areas, or if they are anything like white gouache, which rarely does.
