Hi everyone! I've been having a lot of fun playing in my new illustrated journal. After my first entry, I decided not to sketch in pencil first anymore - just commit to pen right away. It makes things a little more quirky looking to not be able to erase, and I like that. It also makes perfectionism impossible, which is a REALLY good thing...
This first one is done with Pitt Artist Pen and Neocolor II crayons...
and this one is done with Pitt pen, Derwent Inktense Pencils, White Montana Marker, and Neocolor II's...
One thing I am noticing is that my natural tendency is to draw big. Both of these entries ended up being just a piece of the whole picture because I started out so big (unintentionally) - ha. I think I am used to more of a 9"x12" size and this book is 5"x8." That's okay though - I kinda like it that way. It would take a whole lot longer to draw the whole thing!
I hope your weekend is fantabulous! Thanks so much for visiting and for your comments! I really appreciate them!
