Coursework Prep

Watercolor on Paper
A3
I wanted to document this piece in my blog because this is my most favoured piece out of the whole coursework project. The transparency in this piece could hardly be imitated (even in my final final work :( and that's what makes this piece really precious to me. Even so, there is still a lot of room for improvement for it in areas like blending of washes between the face and the neck, shadowing the cheek bone, details on the lips and nose, color combination of the hair and modeling of the facial details and many other more which I could have worked on to produce a better piece.
While I believe in practice makes perfect, I continued to practice on the same composition. Overall, I've painted a rough total of 16 A5 papers, 3 A4 papers, 5 A3 papers, 4 A2 papers, 2 60cm by 94cm papers and 2 52cm by 84cm paper throughout the holiday :p (some are not mounted on the prep boards due to the size and quality of the papers).
However, due to my incompetence and inefficiency, I still failed to meet my own expectations (and not even mentioning the teachers'). Nevertheless, I shouldn't lose faith in myself! I may come back to work on this piece after the eoys. :)
