The Poster :


I still haven't draw the stars on the background, maybe I will add its next week.

 

The Process :


 

Step 1 :









Using the pencil to sketch out the draft of the poster, like the format of the poster, background, portrait, etc.


 

Step 2 :














I used watercolour to paint the background of the portrait, and draw elements which are ( my cousin )Katie's favourites, like using purple, blue, and green to draw the universe, creating some mini planets, moon, etc.

Also, if you look at more details, you will discover that I designed a special frame, in which I have combined the ocean & water elements inside, like the shape and line of the water droplets and waves.


 

Step 3 :










I started to use black & dark brown watercolours to draw the hair, and paint the light orange colour of the face. Also, I used some colourful markers to draw the patterns, and lines of the planets & galaxies.


 

Step 4 :






Using the marker scratched out the outline, like the features of the face, hair, etc. Also, I used the same hair colour to draw the eyes-browns, light brown colour to draw the shadows of the neck & nose and the same face colour to paint the neck


 

Step 5 :




I used black and dark brown watercolours to draw the eyes and used red watercolours to paint the mouth. Also, I used the White-out to draw the reflective light of the eyes. Also, use green and grey-green colours to paint the cloth.


 

Step 6 :



- Need to wait for a while to let it dry


 

The Mind Map : (updated)



 


 


 

Short Refection :


During the drawing process, I have met some obstacle of drawing the face by watercolor. Fortunately, I have fixed problem at the end. After this experience, I learned that drawing watercolour, which needs to be very careful and couldn't use too much water to blend it out.
