## <center>Making my Boho lady</center>
My recent post [Blockchain Bohemians](https://steemit.com/art/@opheliafu/blockchain-bohemians) contained a digital image and poem. This post show the making of that image, my 'Blockchain Boho Lady'. The character in the painting has a certain bohemian feel to her, the curved lines and forms of her clothing are a hint to her mystery and free spirit. 

I started by drawing the outline of the figure in pencil, using long sweeping lines for the hair and clothing. I also gave the figure a elongated neck and face shape. Lines of colour were built up with watercolour pencils, before using water to bleed the lines.

I scanned the original watercolour painting using an illustration filter. I then increased the darker tones and contrast, making the blues in the picture slightly darker.

For the background I was considering a representation of a small-world network, a type of mathematical graph. However, I decide for this piece to use a mesh network as reference point, I wanted to create a simple design of networked circles and this fitted better with that concept.

Using a graphics editor I drew a background of dark blue circles, connecting some of them together to form a network. I then added a background colour, and colour to some of the circles.

<center>The final stage was to add the image of the lady over the background layers.</center>

I liked the drawing very much, but not so much the background that you chose. But I liked the curve, the tones you used and how dark the girl is.
