1. Your favorite coloring medium (markers, watercolors, acrylics or color pencils) 👇

2. Pencil sketch which we're going to color

If you know to draw with pencil properly, you can copy this reference.
If your skill is not good enough, just download and print it out on appropriate paper. By the way, so everything to be fair, I also printed this sketch on a watercolor sheet 👐

Step 1. Mix rose and english red to get a peachy hue. Apply them on the palette. Mix well with water. Test it on a scrap paper for vibrancy and value

Step 2. Start to apply basic tone. Fill roses leaving some highlights in the centre of buds

Step 3. Cover the dress. Move in the direction of folds. Leave some highlights. Paint a visible part of the underneath layers

Step 4. Use the same tone to add an extra layer on petals to make them more 3D

Step 5. Mix a light shadow tone. Add violet and some more basic colors (red and rose)

Step 6. Shade the space between roses. Some roses don"t have it. Also there is shadow in the centre on some roses

Step 7. Apply shodow on some folds on tops and skirt. They are not always entire from top to bottom. Most often they are partial and fragmentary

Step 8. Mix a tone for a deep shadow. I add some black to all the colors I have on my palette. Also add water so the hue would not be so badly dark

Step 9. Add shadows in the deepest places (between some roses, shadows from her sleeves and bottom layers of the skirt)

Step 10. Outline the final result wtih a thin gel pen 0,2. I use waterproof sakura gel pen. I outline roses with dashed strokes in depressions so that it would not become overloaded

Done! It remains only to take picture of it, post and tag my account (@mariartjournal)
