Alden Weight Pull

Description

I'm not sure if this is considered a drawing or a painting as it is gouache on watercolor paper.

This one just wasn't as well-planned overall, which is doubly dangerous due to the unusual perspective. I need to play more with colors and see if I can't get something good going with them as I know there's potential, but I'm still lacking in skill in getting them to work well. The pastels plus ink don't count, entirely different way of working compared to this.

I do admit that it is a lot harder trying to use watercolor brushes vs. the Sumi-e brushes. I'd use the Sumi, but I don't know if they're ok to use with gouache or not... they're definitely a much nicer brush to work with in this mode.
