Email Fraud Part 3

Here is the final piece for the set. I like the way the coins came out, and the hand on top. I'm not loving the shape of the guy being shaken, because it doesn't quite capture the movement I wanted.

Email Fraud Part 2

I think that out of the set, I like this one the best. I think that it is because I love the holes in the colander.
I did this assignment with yupo paper and watercolour paint. I have totally fallen in love with the medium and play with it every time I can. I love the way it captures the movement of the pigment in the water and I like how the colours are more vibrant on yupo paper than they are on watercolour paper. And of course, I love how yupo paper allows me to ERASE.

That said, there are a few drawbacks. It takes forever to dry. And you can' t move the piece of paper while it's drying or it'll run and bleed. You also can't layer colours the way you can with watercolour paper. The colours just mix every time they get wet.
