oh I love this!!! Looks fantastic and your watercolors are really nice.
Yes, you have a spider too! Lovely illo – the web is beautiful.
How did you make the web? I’d like to do this one. I love it!
I used a watercolour masking liquid. It’s a pain to use because it’s smelly and completely ruins brushes, but you can get some really cool effects with it.
This is beautiful! Would it be okay if I did a lesson on this with my art class? Once I make a blog, I will link it to this website.
I would be honoured 🙂
I have seen this ALL over pinterest!! It became the inspiration for my 2nd grade art class. THANKS!!

Can I ask how you applied the dye to get the effect in the background? It is awesome!
I used watercolour paints for the background. I applied the paint first, and then while the paint was still wet I dripped clean water onto the paper. Using good quality watercolour paper helps. Thanks for your lovely comment!
Thanks for your response. Can I also ask what the web is made of?
