Like your use of colours for contours and shadows.

There is a touch of Charles Reid in this study. Has he been an influence? I also love the way you have used the colour for shadow - it is so much more interesting than just deciding on a shadow colour and applying the same shade everywhere. I also like the fact that you have hidden the face - adds to the mystery.

Lovely nude I also love the way you have chosen colour for contours and shadow

Thank you again for the lovely comments, I do like Charles Reid's work, but I think techniques of blending and applying the watercolour in this way came from doing a workshop with an artist called Shelia Gill. I've only been doing watercolour for 3 years and I've still got lots to learn. She really gave me the confidence to use lost and found edges and mix wet in wet without getting mud. I've just applied what I learnt to a different subject, and chose bold colours which I love!
