Brush pens in a rush
Here's a lady with lots of buttons. Having only two blues in the set of brush pens, I thought I'd try and use grey as a blue, also. But it doesn't work. Got all the proportions right, though.
Starting off...
This is a joint blog I shall write with my sister, Kate. We like to draw things and we're making this an exhibition space. I'm going to start it off with a sketch-book drawing. I tend to use ball-point pens for drawing and felt-tips for quick colour. It is limiting, but I prefer to work quickly. I've always thought that decent things can be done with cheap materials. These are not simply felt-tips, but have been fashioned as brush-pens. In the particular set that I have, which is available for use at schools, there were four greens, the deep green you see in the hair, a more viridian that is the lighter green in the hair, a sap green which is in the face and the a fluorescent type of highlighter green that is the most vivid. There was also a lot of this brilliant pink that I don't use very much, except as a background to force out green subjects. As here.
