All right, I'd better explain this. XD

On a watercolour forum I'm on, there are monthly challenges. Mostly, they don't interest me much (many of the artists there are of the flowery-landscapey persuasion), but this month's was fun: Let a family member choose three colours, a brush, and one extra thingie, add only one more thing, and make art with that. My daughter gave me Payne's Grey, Cascade Green, and perm. Alizarin Crimson, a much bigger brush than I usually use, and salt. The salt didn't work out, sadly, the brush gave me a workout, and the colours lent themselves to nothing much than Gamora from Guardians of the Galaxy, so here she is! ;) 

It's probably been over 25 years since I've painted anything with either ochre or blue. =O

That's such a cool idea for a challenge ! Love the ombré on the hair !

Fun challenge, and I like the result - colour scheme has a nice, if maybe a bit different, aestetics to it!

Very nice! That sounds like a great challenge to get the creative juices flowing -- always a nifty idea to step outside the artistic comfort zone and see what happens!

A fine young lady you are raising, Mom.

What a fun idea! And Gamora is gorgeous. I love the way the colors shade and contrast.
