Finished water color drawing, mixed media (incl. Prisma and pastel).

Steps: (See examples below):

1. Under drawing with dark marker on a separate page. See next picture ex.

2. Draw silhouette of garment(s) with Prisma.

3. Color block with water color or gouache. (Flat) No shading (yet). See next picture ex.

4. Render face and details with Prisma, in meantime water color dries.

5. Shade with water color and highlight with Pastel (if needed).

Step 5 could also be done before we color block (step 3).

Composing 2 figures:

The good thing is when we work this way, drawing our under drawing on a separate page, we can move our second figure around (or also could copy larger or smaller).

For a natural and pleasant composition:

Always think of the "golden rule" and of your eye line, what body parts you want to line up, so the figures are standing on the same ground (Perspective, the vanishing point).

That way we get the impression of room and debt.

Of course you can get creative and 'wild', but remember, figures tend to float around the room if you have to drastic contrasts in size.
