watercolor pencil sketches

just a few sketches drawn up while hanging around a jazz bistro, waiting for my sis to get off work. there's no better place to sketch then when surrounded by jazz music. :)

quick scritch to see if I could theoretically do a value painting with watercolor pencils.

started as an apple, but when I thought it looked a little lopsided I developed it as a bell pepper.

the band played 'rocking around the christmas tree', and someone commented saying we needed a christmas tree to rock around...so I made one. the mouse was added in by request.

this one I'm most proud of, and it was just a 10 min doodle. I really like it, but I don't know why.

Mediums:

Cheap Sketchbook

Watercolor Pencils

Niji Waterbrush (small)

Scanner

What I learned:

that I can use those mediums to practice seeing in value, and create sepia-toned paintings.

more control with my waterbrush

how badly cheap paper crumbles under water, but it doesn't matter much if it's just for practice
