Watercolor selfie

You knew it was coming it was just a question of "When".
This is a 7.9x7.9 watercolor . What I have learned so far:
 Start with mid-tones, concentrate on value shapes, watch for forms and connections.

    Very nice! Love all the colors, especially the strength of the color in the shadow side. And great advice too.

    Fab! I'm liking the effect of using multiple glazes - good choice for modeling shapes using watercolor!
