Day 27 of 100 Days of Painting

I'm really not happy with this one.

Hands are hard. I didn't really have a reference photo for them, and colour/skin tones are very new to me as an artist! I used to do pencil portraits, but they are obviously just values and not colour. I've actually been pretty scared to make that leap for a while now! I even have a course on watercolour portraits I've paid for but been intimidated by... I guess the development of that skill is in my hands, I need to remember to be gentle and patient with myself.

The prompt for today is "seedling."
