I did not have every color and kind of went my own way with some of the colors. I used mostly what Lisa Spangler used for the skin but used a good bit of Buff Titanium.
After doing the watercoloring, I cut out my stamped image and placed it on top of the embossed panel. I used a black Copic to go around the edges.
I do love the color of her eyes and that color was Daniel Smith Burnt Sienna with adding a good bit of water.
I had a time painting the large area of skin and keeping my colors the same where I wanted it to be the same. Got to get the water just right. Splotchy isn't good, is it? I think she has a beauty mark to the left of her lip. I got a dot of paint there and just couldn't remove it.
I made her dress a little bit tie die and a bit marbled.

I have been watching a lot of watercoloring tutorials on YouTube lately and based on what I've seen, you NAILED IT the skin tone, shadows, and sense of movement. I love the dreamy expression on the girl with red hair's face and I think the eyes are beautiful.

Beautiful! Your watercolor work is impressive. You make it look so easy. The image over the dry embossed BG, and the framing, all add to her beauty... Betty
