The unique and unusual

This is my first watercolor piece inspired by Carne Griffths & Shepard Fairey. My subject matter was one of my classmates and my color scheme was red,creme and blue.My materials were watercolor paper and watercolor paint; the piece is 8x9.5. It didn't turn out how I imagine it but I can't complain I love it because its different and unique. What I learned from using watercolor is that you can't control how the paint drys but can control where the paint goes and I know next time to let the watercolor do most of the work and not go over it so many times. I also learn more and more and more about water color every time I use it and I think more of my pieces will be watercolor.
