A close up watercolor portrait of a green eye with high contrast between the cool iris and warm skin tones. Transparent washes let the paper grain breathe while precise lines define the upper lid the inner corner and the arc of lashes. Directional splashes and a few controlled drips travel outward so the bright pupil and crisp catchlight remain the focal point.
The work began as a study of tension between clarity and flow. I allowed water to create soft blooms at the edges then returned with measured glazing to model the iris ring the highlight and the lower lid. Small reserved whites and subtle shifts from emerald to olive keep the color luminous without turning muddy, giving the gaze a calm alert presence.
This portrait fragment reads strongly from a distance and rewards close viewing with delicate textures and droplets. It pairs well with neutral palettes brushed metal and light woods, making a refined focal piece for living rooms studios and beauty spaces.
