Pretty pink

I decided to gather a small collection of pink-themed things and arrange them on my frilly floral bed. 

The glasses frames are those mentioned in the previous post, the necklace I created by putting a pair of baby scissors on a chain; I got them as part of a mini stationary kit years ago. The Barbie camera was a present for my 7th birthday and has been drifting around as a random possession of no real use recently. The painting  is part of a triptych I did a little while ago, sort of self-portrait based. I did it when I'd just started getting really into pastel things and became obsessed with the idea of pink or lilac hair.

Anyway, bye.

Here, take a look at some of my watercolours.



I've got really into doing watercolours recently. I never really liked to use them before, because I found doing  tone difficult with them. But after lots of practice I think I've got the hang of them, huzzah!


 Mimi probably trying to drink my painty water, the fiendish thing.
 First of all, I am not a satanist, I just like the shape. Here's a portrait of the beautiful Lana Del Rey. Took me a while to do the hair, but I think it worked out quite well. ^^
Stencil-effect used on the flowers by dabbing them while they're still wet, and making sure I left gaps between the petals.

Veins painted on whilst skin colour was still damp so the blue bled into the skin background.
