Video: Time lapse of “Sunglasses”

I used a black ink Pentel Brushpen and leaf green Holbein Artists’ gouache which was supplied in the November 2019 Sketchbox.

22-second time-lapse of my hand drawing a woman seen from behind wearing a sleeveless dress and sunglasses, and then painting rectangles in lime green.

This was part of a negative space series I did. See the other four.

Drawvember 2019 Days 21-25

In this five-day series, I explored using negative space for the second time. During Inktober this year I used this technique to depict snow and had never been familiar with it.

This was fun to paint!

Video: Time lapse of “Firecamp”

My first gouache painting and I absolutely loved doing it, and how it came out!

I used only 4 colors (of the five Holbein Artists’ gouache tubes supplied in the November 2019 Sketchbox): burnt sienna, yellow ochre, ivory black and prussian blue.
