Sunday Sketches

a rather blah art day today. Was up too early and worked on some line art and then coloured one and started on another. The colour that is progress is an evolution of last weeks fairy. Medium used is water colour pencil with turpentine. Lines was created in Illustrator. Yup these are test for digital stamps :]
Hope you are having a super Sunday. Pop over to Sophia's Sunday Sketches to see some fab artist work.
Cheers

Anonymous said...: Precious! Why do you use turpentine with the watercolor pencils instead of water? Does it give a different look?; March 20, 2011 at 10:53 PM
