ATC Titles #1 (Full Sheet)

ATC Cards (across, down): 442, 441, 440, 437, 435, 443, 436, & 438
Pens: Staedtler, Derwent, & Letraset
Today I have a sheet of ATCs for you. I was messing about with my pens and made a bunch of titles. Since I wanted to print them out for some happy mail, I made them into a sheet for printing. If you click on the image you should be able to save and print it. Printing at 49.5% will make the cards 3.5" by 2.5" and will fit on both A4 and letter size paper.

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.

Have a great day!

Flower 4.75 x 6.75 in.

This flower I drew first with my Rapidograph pens, then colored it in with Derwent Artists Pencils and used sansodor to mix the colors. Perhaps because the red is not so bright, the orange showed up better in this scan. Happily I remembered to scan it before I put it into its frame.

Have a lovely day!
