Princess Leia is Among Stars

I'm very sad about the news of Carrie Fisher passing away yesterday Dec 27, 2016. Being a Star Wars fan for so so long watching this true heroin of Hollywood for so many years was an amazing childhood experience. Ironically I was watching yesterday Episode VI cause I been watching all the movies again since I've seen Rogue One this past Dec 24, 2016 when I've read the news on someone posting on Instagram that she passed away, even though I knew  a couple of days before that she had a massive heart attack and was hospitalized with a very delicate condition.

I've went in to the adventure of making something that I really like which is Star Wars, being that they just recently release Rogue One I've decide to draw and paint BB-8 with Kuretake Water Color paints and I love it!

Watercolor Fox with Kuretaki Gansai Tambi and Crayons

I haven't water color in while and I'm loving it more and more everyday, in this video I've sketched a fox and color it with watercolor pencils and my new Kuretaki Gansai Tambi  12 water color set, after allot of research and some knowledge I've decided that this was a good set to start back on water coloring. How ever I've shown you how I've been working with Distress markers and now I got a new set of Spectrum Noir Aqua that I'm looking forward to start with. But coloring with the Kuretaki has been a great a experience so far, can't wait to show you more of my illustrations and art. I've also dedicated this video to a fox I came across here in YouTube making some research on how to color a fox, this cute fox passed away a few months ago. His name was Ron Ron and I can't express how cute this animal was.
