[Art] Quar Christmas!

Ah~ This makes me smile. <3 I like the face of the character with the red shirt. And Fiona's expression. And Sanura's skin color and belled hat~ Is this watercolors? I envy your control over the media--like heck I can use the stuff. xD

    Had to learn sooner or later-you should see the stack of watercolors my relatives sent me! I may use them all by the time I graduate college.
    A lot more patience (and luck I think) went into this because it was a gift for four other people. I'm really happy I could capture part of who they where-especially kazekage, the only boy, and fiona,who is just spazty.

      xD Oh my! I have quite a few watercolor and acrylic paints, and haven't used either in a couple years. I'm tempted to go dump them on my old art teacher. I'm sure he wouldn't mind.
      It shows. <3 It turned out lovely. Kazekage's face reminds me of one of my best offline friends. If I had a picture to show you, I would--the resemblance is creepy. xD

        lol-the funny thing is he doesn't really look like the person I was portraying. >o<
        It makes a huge difference if you are using crap Crayola watercolors or good ones like Winsor & Newton. I only drag out the paint for special occasions-presents and things...but acrylics kill me, they really do. >< You screw up and you have to repaint the WHOLE section. With watercolor you just-screw up. ^_^;

          xD;; Aww. Better luck next drawing, I guess.
          *nod* I have varying brand quality in the watercolors I've got, I just don't touch em. xD If my old artwork says anything, I do better with acrylics than with watercolors. (They're not posted anywhere. >.o Just saying.)
