Today I am trying my hand at my first watercolor portrait painting. I have been wanting to learn how to paint portraits as I paint so many other subjects, portraits have always seemed so intimidating. I decided to get out of my comfort zone and start with what I thought was an easier reference photo. I could have thrown this painting out about 3 or 4 times, but I'm glad a finished it and learned a lot as I was painting it. Today I share with you, the good and the bad of this portrait painting, what I learned and how to fix it. You can find the full real time version of on my Patreon.
