Inktense Tree

Not intense but Inktense tree.  I sketched in the watercolor sketchbook with Inktense pencils and wet them with water.  Not quite sure how they are supposed to work and only have six colors so this is what you get.

 


For Scavenger Hunt from Life

One of the big Loblolly pines in the back of our house.  

Off to watch the baseball game on the Longhorn network.  It is too windy to get out and about.  Gene has about 8 more eye drops today and it isn't good to take a chance on dirt in his eye.

Hope your weekend is going well.

I think you did fine with the inktense pencils. I like the strong color. Somehow most of my inktense pencils disappeared. I only have a few left in the tin which means they are mixed up with my other watercolor pencils.

Thanks, Joan. I guess I need more time with the Inktense. Hope you find yours. Ha.

I don't think I have tried the inktense pencils. They are interesting, but maybe not for me.

Keep Gene safe at home - this wind is hard on anyone's eyes. Of course, I thought of that saying "Here's mud in your eye!" Who knows where that came from, but it seems like a good saying.

bag blog, I think the pencils aren't for me either but may try them for a line here and there. Gene chuckled at the mud in your eye saying so that is good.

Jennifer Rose, thanks a bunch. I think I might like them more mixed with other watercolors or ink.

Thank you, R's Rue.
