ATC Doodles #5

299

I colored the backgrounds with one of my grey Flexmarkers. It makes the white of the paper stand out. I'm still trying to find a white gel pen here... I found an x-ray marking pen, but it is too fat for highlighting small spaces. Ah well, one will turn up or I will get one when I am out of Saudi sometime.

Have a marvelous day!

 Lines, lines, lines... Wavy like this they look a bit like folds and make me think of netting.

Have a great day!

ATC Rapidograph Tangle Doodles #2

294

The last week or so I have been studying patterns. Zentangle.com has an excellent catalogue of patterns with explanations. I used many of the patterns from the site (and other places) to make these ATCs.

I got a bit carried away with my fine-line pen...

Have a great day!

ATC Doodles in Gold

286DoodleGold

While I was looking for a white gel pen, I found a cute little gold pen. It doesn't have a brand name, but the casing is gold with white hearts and is about 4.25 inches long. I also got a silver pen at the same time which has the label Inoxcrom short roller gel. They could be made by the same company... They flow quite well and the point is fairly small. I am enjoying using them.

Have a great day!

ATC Flower Color #11

I like the look of the colored pencil smoothed out with the sansodor solvent. Despite the name it does stink and I have to make sure there is good ventilation.

Have a great day!

14x17 inch Flower

 I decided to draw out a larger flower on 14 in. x 17 in. smooth Bristol paper and then color it. The piece took quite awhile and it was a chore having to keep it clean. After this experience, I bought a display book to keep my larger pieces clean while I work on them.

Have a great day!

14 x 17 inch Leaf Dragon

I felt like doing a larger leaf dragon last week and below is how it turned out. I used Derwent colored pencils on 14x17in. Bristol paper. It didn't quite fit into the IKEA frame I had, so I added some orange paper to bridge the gap. At some point, I will give the picture a proper second mat (or find a smaller frame. 

Have a great day!

ATC Flower Color #7

268

 To color number 268, I used Derwent Inktense colored pencils, but for number 272 I used Faber-Castell Watercolor pencils. My scanner is making the orange redder than it should be so I photoshopped these two. #268 came out more successfully than #272, when the image is compared to it's original card.
