Continuing on work with this series of watercolor paintings.
This one, as one before that can be seen here https://steemit.com/art/@jungwatercolor/freedom-from-life-tangled-serial-of-watercolors-finished is done in square shape, on of my favorite.
Size is same as previous one 25x25cm. I am thinking of preparing some material for next solo so looking to stay in same dimensions of works. Love when works represented follow some similar shapes and dimensions.
This one is still in work phase and working slowly on it.
Began with pencil sketch since this kind of portraitwork needs precision. Also small size of it dictates accuracy.
Paper is still Fabriano 600gr and I will continue working on it since it gives me liberty of slow work. Because it's heavy one it doesn't wrinkle and can handle lot of water and color. Also it's good since you can wash off with brush some parts if you are not satisfied, but only at the beginning or on thin layers of color.
After finished pencil sketch, started with applying background. Cage dictated blue sky in back, and at the end it will give point to story.
Portrait is done slowly, using spots of water and color for making skin tones.
I left bird cage at this phase unfinished, and still thinking about continuing of the process.
Here is where I am leaving you for now with this work.

Thank you for following and I would love to hear your thoughts and impressions about this work in progress.
I love that you documented your process. As an artist/designer myself I didn't see the value of documenting my process until recently and I applaud you for it. I love your your use of colors, it is very quite, cozy, serene and contemplative. I sense some melancholy to your work as well. Bravo!

It's theme that's been in my head for a long time, looks like it came time to do this woman story :) This one is like, some woman are born in cages, some are given to wear it and some done it by themselves..
There are more coming but as I said, slow work this time.
Thank you for support @arthuradamson :)

I really admire your skill at painting portraits: they are simultaneously individual but also clearly speak of your style which lends them a poetic quality. I am curious to see the finished painting π

@nikolina, this is really slow process since I don't like to rush with this kind of story. Some things come and go just as I watch it during break. But hope soon she will see the day light :)

such a beautiful piece!!! I love the idea of the head in the gage, I did something similar (using one of my rounded-head character ^^) a couple of years ago. It's really intrigued to work on the concept of the cage ^^
