TBT | Exploring Paris + The Tour de France!

I found the inspiration for this project ...

Watercolour Perfume Bottle Paintings

I love love love watercolours lately! So, since I've had time off, I've been able to experiment with a bunch of different images to paint. I did a couple makeup images for a friend a while ago, which inspired me to look into beauty inspiration for my watercolours. I think when you mix makeup, perfume or images of women with ...
