Trying New Supplies

"Thoughtful Man" - Ink and Watercolor Pencils  on Paper
6 1/4" x 9"



It's always fun to play with new art supplies.  Here are some images from my recent experimentation with watercolor pencils (above), Winsor & Newton watercolor markers (below), and Tombow water-based brush pens (also below).

What was especially enjoyable about using this blue watercolor marker from Winsor & Newton was taking a paintbrush wet with plain water to wet the blue lines after the original drawing was done.  The wet brush allows for the creation of different shades of blue, thus making a very simple drawing more complex.  And the bit of uncertainty of the process, not knowing exactly how the blue marks will run and fade is quite fun!
