Black Dress

I was planning to post a short story over the weekend but it's one of those works that's taken on a life of its own and I need to work it throught to see how it turns out. Meanwhile here's a picture I did ages ago, yeah I know it's blue rather than black, it's a comic thing. It's a useful picture because it demonstrates some colouring technique. As you can see there are two stages of the drawing, one's a simple wash the second has has had opaque worked into it. The medium is acrylic on cheap but quite heavy, Cotman watercolour paper. The actual drawings are quite small, probably about the resolution you can see them at, about 4" tall.
