I had some disasters while creating the left side of this art journal page. The one on the right I used colored pencil under the Tombow watercolor markers on her face. That acted like a layer of protection against the paper (which is not suitable for watercolor) You can see the difference on their faces. Because I was so over it, I kind of scribbled her on the page. Which is kind of fun and freeing really. Next time I will try gessoing the pages first and see how that works.
