I find it difficult to put a fi...Thank you Sharon.<br /><br />I find it difficult to put a finger on why I am not satisfied with this drawing. Part of it is the colours - I have been working with this set of water colour pans for a while, but I end up mixing the same colours all the time. <br /><br />The other part is more difficult to explain. In the best of my line drawings, I think there is a combination of boldness and fragileness which I like. I just can't figure out how to bring the same feeling into things I make with colour.<br /><br />I guess I should experiment with different colour media, but my drawing time is so limited...Gryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13900155319635470547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087739806313861191.post-67697813851704429542010-06-29T01:19:21.959+01:002010-06-29T01:19:21.959+01:00Gry,
This is actually a delightfully delicate pie...Gry,<br /><br />This is actually a delightfully delicate piece of work; the shadows are beautifully rendered.<br /><br />However, if you want more colour, I would suggest pans or tubes, as opposed to pencils which tend not to hold so much pigment. Or you could enhance the very darkest areas using a very thin bamboo (which you like to use anyway).<br /><br />None of the above is necessary though - it's lovely!<br /><br />SharonSMVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14830660345886672049noreply@blogger.com
