Playing with Dylusions Ink and colored pencil.


Ink splattered on Bristol 6" x 6" paper.  Beginning pencil over inks.


More pencil...it began to tear the paper as I added more color.  I then used clear gesso and was able to continue with the colored pencil.  It is so relaxing to use colored pencil and a lot of fun.  I see I need to buy more colors though as I never seem to have the color I want at the time I need it.

Wow...the face you did is so stunning. She has a Victorian feel. The art below is amazing as well. I love how you are learning from Misty Mawn, but your art looks like your own still. Lovely lovely work.
