Zorn and japanese watercolour samuri

 


They say Kurataki Gansai Tambi is a mix between watercolour and gouache so I thought it would be fun to try a zorn limited palette painting.

The white is more opaque and powerful than regular watercolour white and I love how it interacts with the skin tone.  So too is the black and when mixed with the red it makes some lovely browns.  

Bonus points if you know what movie this is from.  I wasn't brave enough to do his eyebrows big enough.

I have no idea about the movie, but the face is well done. People make for very hard subjects (I think).

His is a hard face to do. But fun.
