Uma, Kill Bill (2007)



This portrait of Uma Thurman from Kill Bill was a class assignment where we were exploring with portraiture using watercolours.I think this was one of the first times that I'd ever used masking fluid.It is interesting to utilise this method with watercolours as it requires a certain amount of planning in where you want to retain whites and highlights before even laying a wash down.I missed the likeness a little bit with this one. but I like the sweaty glow that comes after fighting the crazy 88.
