Expressive Watercolor Portraits: 10 Techniques to Power Your Creativity

I love your style. Soft and beautiful. Well done.

Thanks. I'm about 3 years into my watercolor journey, so haven't even considered style!

Her eyes are spectacular and very expressive. Congrats on a lovely piece.

Hi Elaine, this so beautiful! I really like your expressive style. The face of the portrait is very proportional. Her looks are very realistic and misty. You used the layering technique very successfully. The purplish burnt sienna you used in the shadow areas strengthened the expression of her face. Your imagination is very strong. The placement and color harmony of the flowers show this. Congratulations! I liked everything about her :) And I really appreciate if you give a review about class. The feedback I receive from students is very valuable to me. :)

Thanks for your comments. I began art with acrylic and and was very uptight. I switched to watercolor and I'm trying to loosen up. Loose is beautiful!

Exactly! You will start to be more creative when using loose technique. :) I hope you will like my other classes.

Thanks. I should upload updated photo - been tinkering with it again.

Please do! I’d love to see the tweaks, although I like it the way it is!

Your imagination is very creative Elaine…this is so good! Love it :)
