Japanese Selfie Valentines

8.5x5.5 ink and watercolor on Bienfang for mixed media sketchbook done today; no pencil used only black Tombow brush pen putting in the darks first.  With these two lovebird couples taking selfies with a pink phone it is perfect for a valentine of sweethearts.  I only colored the floral dress of the girl holding the phone, the hair flower and middle wrap of the one in white.  A script liner #1 brush used with water to bring black out to make grey for a three value piece.  The photo is courtesy Dewi of WetCanvas and will be featured on this month's Watermedia challenge.
