Day 38: Artsnacks supply challenge

I received a little monthly subscription package from Art Snacks, and their challenge is to use all of the supplies in a single piece of art and send them a photo. So here’s what I came up with. Included were a nice pencil and charcoal set, a large black permanent marker, like for posters, a red Zig brush pen (water soluble), and two Stabilo pens, in yellow and light blue. I drew another of my anniversary roses and created a Graffiti Rose. Then I tried a sort of comic book look. And THEN, I used the charcoal alone for a little drawing of pomegranates.

I guess really I’m more the still-life-pomegranate type. But… I enjoyed creating the graffiti rose, and I liked the messiness of it. 🙂

Day 37: sketching

Just a quick sketch of a photo from our walk today on the Nolan Trail, looking up through the trees, in a journal I’ll be sending off to a swap-bot friend. Goodbye, sweet Little Tree Sketch! I’ll miss you!

Notebook paper, uniball deluxe micro pen, copic markers N2 and N4.
