Watercolor and Dr. Ph Martins’ India Inks on Fabriano cold-pressed paper, 8” x 12”, June 2021.

As soon as I saw the reference photo I was reminded of a painting I did several years ago, and knew this would make the perfect companion piece. It was a lot of fun to paint, and I love the rich colors I can get with ink (without having to worry about lifting any of it during subsequent glazes). There’s a touch of metallic ink in parts of the background and around the figure, though unsurprisingly it didn’t show up in the photo. Unfortunately these inks are tricky to photograph since they can reflect a bit in sunlight, so I did the best I could.
