Like a sea (mixed media on paper)

Hello hivers, an happy Thursday to you all!
Today a pale Sun is shining on the sky between some clouds. The weather is warm enough to wear the shirts and so it's that time of the year to place the wool clothes and blankets inside the tranks (at home I have 2 old beautiful wooden trunks made by the grand father of my hubby).
Since I came back at home after the Bologna Children's Book Fair I'm working on some new ideas and my mind is focused on characters (my own characters in my own illustrative style) who looks like houses. I'm sketching and painting some different scenes about this theme and, in the following pics, you can see the final result of my new one about the sea:

As you can see, the subject is one of my woman with long blue hair similar to the waves of the sea. Her body seems a sort of home for funny fishes, while a little paper boat is sailing on her hair.
It's a mixed media (oil colors, acrylic colors and white ink) painting on 200 gsm paper in A4 size and, like I use to do almost every time I paint something new, I took some pics while I was painted her so you can see the process too:

Soon I'll add this new artwork to my Artfinder shop (link at the bottom)!

I hope you like it!
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia

This looks nice
Is it only acrylic paint you use for your paintings or other ones too?
