A frontal watercolor portrait where a young woman with red hair meets the viewer with clear steady eyes. Flowers and light foliage rise around the crown to frame the face while reserved whites and generous negative space keep the features crisp. Color sits close to the cheek and hairline so the first read is strong on the wall.
I developed the work from gesture sketches and value studies. Broad wet on wet passages set the larger shapes, then glazing and dry brush refined petal edges, leaf veins, eyelashes and lips. Transparent washes allow the paper grain to show through and tiny speckles add natural texture without crowding the silhouette. The palette balances warm coral and copper with cooler blue and green accents.
The mood is poised and contemporary. Printed large, the portrait holds at a distance and rewards close viewing with precise line work and soft transitions. It pairs well with neutral textiles and natural woods, bringing a refined botanical presence to modern interiors.
