9×12 Watercolor Pencil Portrait on Crescent Board

I only had a couple hours to paint Micaela and I really wish I had more time, but it was a pleasure to paint her.

Portland, Maine singer and entertainer, Viva, sat for our Sunday Morning portrait group. This was my first foray back into doing life portraits in full color. I was originally doing them in black and white because we only have 2 and a half hours with our model and color adds a lot of time. I’m happy with the way this one came out though and look forward to using color in the future.
