Over the past month, I have been working on this portrait for my friend. Being a musician, he inspired me to take on this task of creating an album cover for him, if he ever decided to publish music in the future. However, I was very hesitant when it came to the watercolor pencil background. Having been limited to only acrylic paint this school year, watercolor seemed very intimidating since its qualities are almost the complete opposite to those of acrylic, yet despite my concerns, the waves turned out a lot better than I expected.
