Its looking more and more like watercolor pencil and water brush are the more effective way to get a nice solid color coat on to the pages of these moleskin’s.

A nice like coat of pencil followed by a light wash will coat the surface and make it easier to then apply more color in richers shades.

Update #1

morningnoonandnifghtriders-sm-01

trying to simplify the train drawings. I tend to over commit to too much detail given the time i have to draw.

although too much detail can also end in getting Big headed ladies like this one. head focus body second never the two shall coincide with a mutual proportion.

Big headed lady is colored (not finished yet) with water soliable Carryn d’ache crayon.

Project: DAP; Road Trip pt1

Took a lil road trip this past weekend. Thank god for traffic or there  wouldn’t have been any time to do some drawing.

Road Tripping; Love in a bug.

its all ove in the bug.

After leaving the brush that came with the windsor newton travel water color set, i had to improvise at staples. I lucked out and got some really shitty brushes and some kids crayola ‘mess-less’ water color brushes, sort of like a water brush but with premixed paint inside. It would be cool it they could be refilled with just water or custom colors; a waterbrush on the cheap.

if it makes a mark, I want two. A good pen is a good pen is a good pen, weather its .65 cents or 65$ or more, it it fits my grip and makes a good mark, i use it. I think the years of Style Writing has pushed me into making pictures, and not care about the physical life span of the image. Style Writing (graffiti) is so temporal but lives on via the hyper vigilant documentation by artist and fan alike. In that vein, the picture lives, degrades, changes, the document/ scan/ digital photo, is proof it existed. Through multiple sets of documentations you can track the evolution and understand the life span of the picture.
