2nd Attempt

I'm loving my new found friend in Corel Painter X. This is my 2nd attempt and I learned well from last night and did frequent backups to the image as I went along. Here are several stages of the process.


The original image.



Added watercolor paints to the background.



Added Brush strokes to the hair for the watercolor effect.




Did the clothes.




And finally her face.

It's hard to see the difference in the blog but believe me there are a number of them since very little of the original print was left untouched and the parts that were was totally by mistake.
This was a lot of fun.
