First attempt at water color in.... forever?

Alrighty, now I'm gonna try my hand at watercolor. I've opted to do a fairy, because I love 'em =]





I started out with a pretty rough sketch.. pencil on watercolor paper. No big deal. I'm not quite where I want to be with human figures just yet.. but I'm getting there. This pencil didn't erase well.. I'm not sure if it was primarily the paper, pencil or eraser, but I'm bummed out that I can still see the initial lines. =[
Once I was finished with my pencil drawing, I decided I wanted to make my lines more defined, so I went over my pencil with ink. I then went back and erased what I could. I'm upset that the ink blotted at the toe and in part of the wing.. I'm hoping I can find a decent way to cover the blots up.


Finished! I think I might make a watercolor collage with this at some point.. I'll keep you posted.
