Watercolor splotches set me free

About a month ago, Modcloth did a feature/collab with the lovely illustrator Katie Rodgers of http://paperfashion.net/. I quickly consumed all of her helpful tutorials and went out and got some watercolor paper, brushes and a new smaller set of Windsor Newton water colors.

Her work is a great influence. I highly recommend spending some time on the site with her beautiful fashion illustrations.

Anyhoo, my Dr Sketchy's drawings are below. I think it's obvious that I have been having fun.

This is Catwoman:

And Mercy Beaucoup as Wonder Woman:
