This became something different than it started out (the plan was for a much simpler background among other things). The figure, for the most part, turned out okay. However, I did not achieve the correct skin tone and then broke one of the cardinal rules of watercolor: I overworked it and went over it again and again (and gave the poor girl sunburn). No tube green was used for the trees in the background which is unusual for me. I do tend to over rely on Sap Green and Deep Sap Green. So to shake things up, I took up the Mind of Watercolor challenge and mixed my greens from various yellows and blues. The end result was/is. . .encouraging.
