Pigment markers are different from dye markers and I have to learn how to use them more effectively!

New art

The first is called "At the Black Canyon of the Gunnison" and is made with Christmas markers. It is 8 x 10, on watercolor paper.

The second is gouache--I was just fooling around testing the transparency/opacity of the gouache.

fooling around

Tonight I was fooling around doing an experiment. I did a value study of BB's face in our normal diningroom lighting using markers and then colored it with markers. It's not a great portrait, but it was a good experiment. Click to view slightly larger.
