Be My Valentine

11x8.5 watercolor drawn today from an ink sketch I did this morning at 5:30; this is on Italia 140 lb cold press paper with Daniel Smith and Grumbacher paints.  I worked from a black and white composite photo so all colors are imaginary.  For some reason the guy ended up resembling Lionel Richie.  At any rate, it's the last in my Valentine heart series.  Thanks to the guest artists who participated in the fun! Have a happy heart day!

Latina Woman

11x7 watercolor figure on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper, finished today, another in my series of mannequin models.  I decided to make this woman a Latina, because I think they are the most beautiful figures in the world.  She's looking over her right shoulder as if daring anyone to catch a lady in red!
