twinks and sketching

Derwent Sketching pencil Medium Wash 4B

Twinkling H2Os, done from a tutorial on Dion Dior's blog

Both are in my wonderful Stillman and Birn Delta series sketchbook.

AEDM #2 - #5

This is a quick sketch of the California Rolls that G brought back to me for lunch.  He's not a Sushi fan so that means more for me - YAY! (oh, he brought me Guiness Black Lager, too - so I think that he's a keeper).

 I did this while watching The Tale of Despereaux.  The movie is ok, the book is wonderful.

I picked up some Derwent Sketch Watersoluble Graphite pencils at Micheals, so of course I had to test them out.

More practice working with Jean Haines wonderful DVD, Amazing Ways with Watercolor.

First three done in Renaissance Arts Journal, Arches Textwove paper - last on Strathmore 140# coldpress watercolor paper.
