Oh daughter




I recently posted a photo of my daughter in the photo critique section. This drawing, from that photo, is approx. 12 x 18 on 140# arches paper, done with a #2 pencil. This paper is so tough it could weather a hurricane.

My intent when I began was to make a minimal drawing and then make my first attempt at a watercolor. Well, predictably, I took the drawing a little further. Now I'm scared to slosh water on it.

Assuming that I gain courage and begin to slosh, I wonder about your advice regarding color. There will be only two colors besides the flesh tones. The shirt and a splash of color beside it on our left under the arm.

What are your fav color combo's and any other advise one would like to offer.
