If that's the study I want to see the finished portrait.. Gorgeous.

It's a shame that 98% of all watercolor paintings (at least of the few that I come across) are of the abstract/impressionistic kind, I really dig the naturalistic approach to watercolor.. More please :)

i think that's true because of how hard it is to control water color. it takes a great deal of talent to have that kind of medium control. btw, great job on the portrait! i'd like to see more :P
