Here is my coloring for the day.
I have chosen the same small motif. I have stamped it on Ivory white card stock using black ink.
I wanted to try the brush pens. I have absolutely no idea about them. So I thought, I would try them out. I have used Camilin Pens.
This was my first attempt. I used a dark colour. If you look at it closely, there are some areas which were not covered.
This is my second attempt where I tried shading. Again there are some areas which were not covered properly.
I am yet to gain mastery, at least of some sort over this medium. Used to holding brushes, I find it a bit cumbersome holding these pens since they are much thicker and the tip is brush like. So I had to struggle for getting control over the tip. As of now, I prefer brushes.
But one thing about these pens is that there is no mess of mixing various colours for painting and every time you mix, the shade or tint may vary. So these pens save us a lot of time and energy.
I need to work with these pens. The colours are beautiful. I think I need to experiment with a different paper as base-may be water color paper ?
What do you say?
