So apparently my lining pen doesn't work well on rough watercolor paper. :I So the lines for this took quite awhile...
I was going for a cuter almost storybook style. It was hard to paint it because my pen ink wasn't watercolor proof apparently. ;~; I'll stick to non-lined watercolors from now on. This scan is actually larger than the actual piece. Hope you guys like it~
Watercolors, ink, white paint. [cherry blossom colors fixed in gimp]
Great work! I especially love Big Ben! Instead of outlining and coloring on the same piece of paper try doing the line art then scanning it and printing it onto watercolor paper. It works great!
