Rowan

Contest prize for , this is her character Rowan.

I had really big plans for this prize, very ambitious perspective and a picture that overall tells a story. I drew a couple of sketches but they didn't work out and I'm feeling a bit down that the final product is another generic pose, but I just really need to get these prizes done this year, the beginning of 2014 is going to be so hectic that I don't think I'll have any time to draw.
I did manage to try out watercolor painting without inked lineart, that was new and interesting, and I do like the colors... But she's sitting on thin air, how?! By the way my cat just randomly fell from on top of my computer screen yesterday, I laughed so hard (it kinda relates to this because I think she just fell asleep on top of nothing?)
Anyway, I had a reference:
 where the person is clearly sitting and I was originally going to draw something on the background but gah, my brains just shut down, I really don't know why I didn't do it. x___x

Also, I'm so sorry for butchering your beautiful necklace design, the picture was simply too small to get all the pretty details in. TT___TT

Yup, not my proudest moment, hahaha.
