Paint Swatches

In this picture you can notice the transparency and brightness of colours (In this test I used watercolor paper).

On the top there are acrylic paint, while on the bottom you can see watercolor pencils.

I especially liked Phthalo blue for acrylics, and violet for watercolor pencils.

Test on Canvas!

For this painting I used canvas sheets I found in the box.

I used water to dilute acrylic paints as they were watercolors.

After the first layer dried, I continued layering with more opaque colors.

To increase opacity, I reduced the amount of water and mixed colors with white paint.

Once paint dried, I used white paint to draw water reflections on hair.

Watercolor Pencils

Once painting was finished and completely dried, I used watercolor pencils to define eyes and shadows.

I watercolored them on top of the acrylic paint.

Again, once watercolor pencils dried, I used the finer brush in the box to add reflections on eyes and in the rest of the portrait. For this step I used white acrylic paint directly from the tube.
