Media: Acrylic on watercolor paper
Size: 12x17 in
This is somewhat different from my recent paintings. In addition to being a watercolor the background is done with tissue paper. I began by covering the face drawing with a liquid frisk. The watercolor paper is then moistened and the tissue is applied. The color bleeds from the tissue onto the paper. The tissue is removed after the color is allowed to bleed onto the paper. Once the paper is dry I removed the liquid frisk. I then made a poster board stencil and airbrushed the face.
