Mermaid painting commission. This was my first project using FW Liquid acrylic ink over Rapidiograph ink rather than traditional watercolor and gouache. Painted on Arches Aquarelle 140lb. watercolor paper 11”x14”.
Final
Underpainting with waterproof
Rapidiograph ink
At one point, the skin tones got too dark and I found out I could overlay a translucent layer of FW white to lighten without it being noticed the way it would with gouache over watercolors.
