Day 14: Drawing the dresses

I drew and painted a set of my groups dress and several other dresses. The painting was in guache. I found that sheer and translucent materials are extremely difficult to paint in guache. In fact, it was pretty frustrating to paint layers seeing as guache just dissolves in the background. However, I found that blotting paper towel was very effective to achieve a similar texture to the sand on the dress. By far, guache has been the hardest paint i've ever worked with because of it's nature to dissolve the layers behind and leave streaks.
