I wanted to draw two girls having a tea party.

A pencil sketch by Luna Topaz showing two girls having tea together, drawn on watercolor paper and taped with blue painter’s tape. Luna spent a long time working on their expressions so it looks like they’re on a date.

I worked for a long time on the sketch. I tried to work on their expressions so that it looks like they are on a date.

A watercolor painting work in progress by Luna Topaz with a pink ground and hints of yellow, showing two girls at a tea party. Some areas are left unpainted for later layers.

I used a pink mostly ground. I used yellow in some places and left some places unpainted for other colors later.

I worked on developing the foliage and shadows.

A finished watercolor and gouache painting by Luna Topaz featuring two girls having tea together under glowing lanterns. The girl on the left is pouring tea into the flowery cup that belongs to the girl on the right. The scene is surrounded by warm pink and purple foliage, with paint tubes visible below the artwork.

Here is the finished painting! I used gouache for her dress and the frills. I tried to use dry brush to make the lanterns glow more.

I think they look really cute together and I also noticed I accidentally remade a painting from 2019.

Thank you for looking and have a nice day~!
