This is my last watercolor painting. A portrait I did using my daughter as a model.
Sometimes my titles are very explicit, and sometimes I like to let more freedom for interpretation, which is the case here.I used a layering technique,Click here to see a step by step painting tutorial for this watercolor portrait on ARTiful, painting demos blog.
I grew up in France but have been living in Canada for the last 12 years, I am currently located in North Vancouver and work from a studio on Pemberton Avenue.
I have two passions:
- Painting the effects of light with watercolor on paper through portraits and cityscapes
( http://www.watercolorpainting.ca/ and http://www.yupopaperpainting.com/ )
- Building complex textures and edges with acrylics and mixed media on canvas (http://www.mixed-media-paintings.com)

I certainly agree with you accessment of the painting in reference to the background. I don’t think you needed anything stronger as it might have taken away from the wonderful image of your beautiful little girl. Good work Sandrine.
Thank you Jim!
