The drawing: finished! The transfer to canvas: complete! The underpainting: glowy!

I transferred the drawing to Fredrix Watercolor Canvas just like I transfer things to paper. This is my first time using watercolor canvas, and I will have a thorough review of it later. *grumble*
I didn’t use fixative or masking because I didn’t know how the canvas would handle it. I did a few tests on the back to see how layering would work, but that’s about all I did in preparation. Despite the limited success with layering, I decided to do an underpainting. That would ensure that any “white” space would have some color.

I used this eerie green because I intend to use it as one of my light sources. Guess which!
