"Scars Of The Past" Original Watercolor and Water Markers Painting

in art •  7 years ago 

I thought I'd share with you, my latest painting called: "Scars Of The Past".
I have been feeling let down lately by a person that was special to me. A person that helped me through my tough childhood and so I created this painting to remind myself and many of you out there, that no matter how bad your past is: it is just past. What counts is the work you do in the present to create a better future.
Check below for a few steps on how I made this painting come to life and if you like it, don't forget to upvote and follow (there are plenty more coming as the muse is once again whispering in my ears) :)

This is how it began:

Then I drew the edges of the character with a water marker:

Then I added some more edges and some shadows:

Then some colour:

And then the colours that accompanied me throughout my life:
