This is the
final composition - after several variations - for the painting.
One method
I use when working with reference photos is to make black and white copies and transfer them to my cartoon using the grid
method.
After
the cartoon was sketched I inked over it. It's then placed under the watercolor paper (Arches 140# hot press) and traced
- very lightly with pencil - using a light box.
Once
the paper has been stretched, mounted and then dries, masking fluid is applied to protect certain elements of the painting
from being painted.
