@Tiffany-Thomas Thanks so much for showing me! I love seeing the underpainting. I didn't know you could do that with watercolor. You've mastered it!
-
@Janette Thank you so much!!!
-
@Katie-Carling Haha, thanks. Not sure if that's how you're 'supposed' to do watercolor, but I was an oil painter first so it's a habit I carried over. It really helps me to figure out the value of things before I work on the color and I love the way the sienna mixes in and influences the other colors.

@Judy-Elizabeth-Wilson haha, I'm a crazy dog lady so I know exactly what you mean ;). I can never resist a big, toothy grin.

Fox Park. Drew this in pen and then coloured with watercolour. Bit of a tightrope act.

Hey everyone, after spending a grueling 33.5 hours on this (according to the Procreate time counter) of which about 10 hours were spent on a false start (see WIP picture below) I'll rather call this done and move on.
Some background: These kids are Elias and Daniel, part of my original cast of characters I've been doodling on and off over the last 25 years. I have done some limited run comics with them but nothing too special yet, and here I wanted to go further into developing the universe they should live in. In this case here we see Daniel's room — as messy as any normal 9-year old kid's room should be. In fact it should be messier, but drawing and painting all that mess takes a lot of time. Just for comparison I'm attaching the initial coloring draft which after some good advice was changed to its final form.
Also: Is it normal to spend 20+ hours in a piece like this? I always wish I could work faster so I could have more things to show and post on social media. But speed isn't one of my virtues...
