I have 2 little boys that don't allow me to paint for more than an 1 hr at a time so I worked on this over a few days. It is only watercolor paints and black is lamp black by Daniel Smith. I love DS lamp black because you can get that deep concentrated color without it being shiny. Have a great week everyone:)Carrie Waller Watercolorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10950677994996699686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7250068323501618005.post-1432931641685185182011-08-15T10:46:49.685-05:002011-08-15T10:46:49.685-05:00Carrie...Seriously..you are gonna have to stop wit...Carrie...Seriously..you are gonna have to stop with this perfection....absolutely exquisite. i adore how you got the reflection, so cool...and the fraying string...amazing!
