Watercolour Portraiture

As a fan of portraiture I have often stuck to sketches and acrylic paint, however I recently started to experiment with watercolour portraits after seeing Chris Guests exhibition in which I prefer not to make them look neat or as they are in the original reference picture. I do this because I think the watercolour paints compliment this style of painting the best, I achieve this by leaving blank spaces, leaving broad and expressive brush marks and not using the correct colour pallets and I have found this very fun and a refreshing take on portraits for my self.
