Here is an old painting I did probably back in early 2000's when I was using the capital letters for a signature. The scene is an imaginary art gallery containing paintings and sculptures and a character (Colonel Sanders?) who is criticizing the work by saying "Learn how to paint, because Steve Hanks you ain't!". Steve Hanks is a great watercolour painter, he specializes in photo-realism portraits of women and children, and he wrote an article in a watercolour magazine describing how to paint realistic looking skin tones. That article was very useful, I often employ the technique to depict skin tones, as discussed in previous blogs.
10x30" hot press (300lbs), watercolour, 2001?
