lots and lots of patience. i messed up the first time and had to start over. my process is pretty simple. i alter a picture online in a stencil format. and then i free hand it on paper. then i ink it with a quill pen and then i fill in the ink in lines. and then add watercolors. i used sumi ink and basic watercolors for it.
OMG. there fantastic i love the third one. you can tell your a very gifited artist. and fair play to you for doing it just for the fun. a true artist you are.
