This recreation from one of my photos was a way of giving a hard-edged detailed pen drawing an expressive quality to it. Watercolours are great when used loosely as they provide a light wash of colour to enhance the fineliner and give the drawing a slightly less realitic look. The drawing was quick and simple and I think the contrast between the soft watercolours and the bold fineliner works well. Although, to me, the drawing is unfinished. There is a lot that can be done to improve this painting in order to give it more depth so I do plan on working back into this at some point.
