EDM challenge Christmas Card

My simple angel, or at least I thought it would be simple. I wanted to create a wash reminescent of a whisper of an angel. Of course nothing is that simple. As usual I tried too hard and worked it too much. Ah - that is what a challenge is, an effort and I do 'know' it is an angel. I will revisit this challenge at a later date. pencil outline then several watercolor washes in my moleskine (non watercolor) journal.

I love your blue angel! Soft and pretty and just enough form to make it an angel.
