a new painting

 

Sadness

 

I still need to paint more people to get better.

If you don't like....

If you don't like the way a painting works just do it all over again on the same canvas.  I do.

Crayola drawing

I did this drawing with all my Crayola pencils and crayons.
First I drew her out with the erasable color pencils I've had for some time, (and some times wanted to get rid of but couldn't).  I always thought they were useless?  (Don't know why).

Anyway after I drew her out I inked her with a fine point "Sharpie" then proceeded to color her with my new twistable color pencils and the back ground is colored with a twistable crayon.  Her skin was done with the new pro markers I bought and the hearts I colored with the new gel pens I also bought on Amazon.

Crayola has some new stuff

I went shopping at Walmart and usually cruise down the stationary isle to see what I can pick up. And Wow here was some new stuff, first I saw these twistable color pencils, and right next to them I saw the twistable crayons. (Yes you could still use crayons on your drawings, Some of the illustraitors on You tube still do.) So I just bought them. Not bad I like using them and they erase good enough when I want them too.

No I'm not getting paid by "Crayola".

Oh and I had mentioned the "Copic Markers" I saw some of the illustraitors use, they turned out to be $35.00 to over a $100.00 a set, Not affordable. However, I found another illustraitor from some where in London who was using "Winsor and Newton Promarkers" much better priced. $16.00 a set on Amazon. So I bought those in a flesh tone set. Of course these markers are alcohol base, but they don't bleed through the paper, which is cool.

I have been watching a few illustrators oworking on You Tube and they were using Copic markers; never heard of them but thought they were fabulous.  After a little research I thought the price was extreme, 40.00 to over 200. Per set.   (Wow)

So I went back to playing with my sharpies but what I don't like is that they bleed through the paper.  ( these illustrators would probably agree.
What I did was check out some other markers I had, generics called Cra Z art and some Crayola water base markers and neither bleed through the paper.  By the way the CraZarts are water based too.  I had both in my box of face paints, since they are water based they clean off fairly easy.

Just in case anyone is interested in which markers that don't bleed.
