18″ X 24″ Original Artwork

Finished this new artwork recently! For this piece, I did a pen and watercolor drawing for the very detailed areas by making a pencil sketch, then filled the canvas in with a layer or two of watercolor and added some pen over that once the paint was dry. I also did some gouache in other areas for a contrast in texture. I really wanted to create a sense of energy in the air with the background texture and various layers of wiggly lines in gouache over a base of watercolor really did the trick.

The piece is done on watercolor paper that is mounted to an aluminum board with adhesive film. It’s not up for sale yet or anything, just felt like sharing! Enjoy.
