Town Gardens Aviary - fine liner pen, Pentel brush pen and watercolour crayons on Hahnemuhle Grey Paper |
I was trying out some newly acquired watercolour wax crayons and am not really happy with my efforts. The background trees were far too bright, so I scribbled over some black crayon and was able to try out a scraffito effect to add a bit of texture.
I definitely need to practice with these a bit more to achieve better results.
I was impressed with the sketches by this artist pat.southernpearce and wanted to attempt something similar.
Test colours on tan paper (Paperchase sketchbook) - water added on the righthand side |
Colours tested on Arches wc paper - white crayon has been added over the six colours at the bottom which has muted them slightly |
