Inspiration Avenue - Black, White and Pink

>> Thursday, March 10, 2011

This week's Inspiration Avenue weekly challenge was Black, White and Pink.  I immediately thought of a ballerina so I sketched one while I was at work and broke out my water colors when I got home.  I really like her; however, if I were to do it again, I would not put any facial features.  That's the one part I really don't like.  I had a ton of fun with this one and really let myself go and not worry about trying to be perfect.  

I've also realized lately that I'm loving the color pink.  Purple has been my favorite since I was little but lately everything I like happens to be pink!

Such a lovely ballerina (and I think the shading on the skirt is great)

So glad you actually went through with it :)

This is really pretty! I like the way you've shaded the watercolours on her dress.

She is beautiful. You've managed to create depth and movement in her skirt which is clever. Great take on this week's theme.

Kat :-)
