Overland, mixed media, 9 x 12
Well, I decided it was time to literally go back to the drawing board. I missed drawing and feel like there are some issues that are hard to solve with just paint. So this is the beginning of a few of these. Of course, I could not resist using a bit of color…but you can see that I started with pencil…then tried markers and watercolor and gouache. I’m tempted by a watercolor class or two…even though it’s never been my first choice of medium. I’m tempted by a lot of art supplies and classes though. Go figure.
Love the open airy feeling! I also love just drawing and sketching..something about holding a crayon or pencil in hand, Have tried watercolor recently in a course and although way out of my comfort zone found the media interesting and less scary than I thought!
There’s more control with the pencil and more play with the crayons and watercolors. I admire your openness towards experimentation.
I think playing it up with mediums and techniques helps us improve in each one. I love watching your thought process and technique with each medium you use.
