Josie O'Neal-Odom | Millie and the Itchiest Sweater Page Ten
Parsons School of Design | Instructor(s): Lauren Redniss and Chang Park
Medium: This piece is created with acrylic gouache and colored pencils with light digital editing. When using acrylic gouache I tend to prefer to treat it like watercolors, so for most of the painting I made sure everything was watered down. This technique was especially useful when doing the stairs and giving them texture.
