Experimenting with watercolors

Pumpkin Pie is always up for trying new things. Whether that means using an entire roll of scotch tape to make a rainbow paper strip whip, or busting out her water colors when we're not looking, the results are always interesting, if not messy.

Here's Pumpkin's first attempt at painting with watercolors. When she was painting this picture I think she realized that she needed to have some sort of outline for the girl:

On her next attempt she first drew the picture in pencil first. I think it makes a really cool effect:

And finally, on this picture she used pencil first, and then watercolors on everything except for the eyes. For the eyes she used a blue marker because she didn't want them to go outside the lines.

And then there's the mess that accompanied all this... but that's another post entirely.
