Last Sketches

Well, the last sketches for Scavenger Hunt 156. Today is the end of the Hunt and I have managed only 8. That is the way November went for me. Very little art work. I'm not sure why, feeling a little indifferent I suppose. Now I have to rush to get paintings and sketches finished by the first of January.

Number 7, jade - this new Prismacolor pen reminds me of jade, it is probably a little dark. Done with the Prismacolor 03 (black) and a Prismacolor brush tip(green) pens. This is a test again with the Prismacolor pens. I will be reporting on them after a few more tries. I sketch freehand and try to do them quickly, this was five minutes or so.

Number 8, jelly - substituted jam. This was completed with the Prismacolors - black 3, purple brush tip and finished up with colored pencils. About 15 minutes with the coloring.

Jo: I enjoy when you add color to your sketches.

fishing guy, I like the color, too. I usually sketch for the drawing practice, though, and don't mess with color. I use the color in my paintings. Maybe I should do more though... hmmmm.
