My Pastels Sketchbook


After a bit of playing catch-up with admin, I've been drawing again this week at last. To warm up, I had a bit of a play in a pastel-paper sketchbook:


The one good thing about having stringy hands, is that there is more to draw, though I promise they are a healthier colour in reality!


I also added some colour to one of the character sketches I was playing with during an earlier sketch session. It's an experiment, using a line, which normally gets left behind once I colour.


Although it's quite fun, I feel the line makes it look a bit too cartoony. I do want to see if I can find a way to incorporate line though...
