For this painting, I wanted to create mystique by contrasting the youthful, happy face with a dramatic background, leaving the viewer to wonder about the occasion. I used 260# Arches cold press.

That's so nice. Thank you Sadami. I hope you do continue with watercolor. It's an addicting habit, isn't it!
'Colour wise' genius! The background is simply amazing! I guess it’s somewhere in India.
