A new experience for me - I'm using A3 watercolour paper! My Sketchbook is only A5, and smooth paper. What a difference textured paper makes, as well as paper four times the size ........ Anyway, herewith my sketch. Thought I'd give her feathered wings this time.
Add some flesh coloured pencils and paint, some water soluble crayons (her skirt) and some colour to her wings - plus a whole lot more graphite!
She now has blonde hair as you can see, and I stippled the background with blue red and black acrylic paint and added some gouache white paint. I did a lot of fiddling with her wings too. I have to revisit all the flesh parts (lots of fiddling to do there!) and work on her skirt, and generally put a lot more detail in. Still, she is getting there, slow but sure.
Bye for now .......

Its lovely to see how this angel develops.
She's already beautiful Val, and aren't you brave working on such a large sheet of paper!
A huge leap from A5 to A3 but you managed it beautifully.
Fabulous! You did a great job on those wings....
