Charles Reid is my favourite watercolour painter and I’ve been trying to learn from his books for some time now.
In his past workshops I’ve read about, he encouraged his students to paint from black and white photographs. I really liked this idea so I will try to do some more watercolour sketches like this in the next couple of days.
For my first sketch I used one of the beautiful photographs by Mucha, taken in his studio – Miss Reichl (Max Reinhardt’s Company’s leading actress) posing for ‘Tragedy’, a German Theatre mural.

Pencil line and watercolour in Stillman & Birn’s Beta series sketchbook.

Congratulations! It's amazing how you used the colours and the techinque.
I really love watercolors, but i had some little problems with this techinique, i must say it was more like a war, but finnally i did it, and now i'm practicing too:).
Keep up the good work!
