Fishing Boats Graphite Drawing

Fishing Boats Graphite Drawing

9.5" x 6.25"

I worked on this drawing a few days ago and posted it as a WIP.

Two people said I should keep the drawing as is, and do a new drawing instead for the Watercolor

After thinking it over that sounded like a good Idea.

Hope you can find a home for this drawing.

WIP Blue & White Fishing Boats - Staithes

Blue & White Fishing Boats Drawing

I just love the composition of this, and the shapes of the Fishing Boats.

Not sure yet what the background is going to be, a nice sky for sure, the late afternoon sun is hitting the boats in the foreground, so it needs to be a very warm painting.

For this one I am not going to use ink, so I used a 2H pencil to pencil in the line.

I wonder how much of the pencil will show through when it is painted?

Watercolour Tutorial - How to paint a Beach scene by Tim Wilmot #3

Here is a really great Watercolor Demonstration by Tim Wilmot 

Not only are his paintings wonderful, his demonstrations are very helpful, and it is nice to see someone actually showing you what to do and how to do it.

He has his Watercolor Palette on the right hand side, so you can actually see what colors he is using as he is mixing and painting.

I don't like to use the artist's photo to paint the scene, however if you want to paint the scene, you can click on Plage La Ponche, St Tropez to the Google Street View of Plage La Ponche, St Tropez.

 

This is one of my favorite Watercolor Demonstrations

WIP New 2020 Watercolor Palette Ink Drawing

Very late last night I got the urge to get to work, so I inked my pencil drawing of my new Watercolor Palette. I wanted a larger sketch, so I used my Moleskine 135lb CP 8.5 x 11 Watercolor Journal.

I didn't want the starkness of Black Ink, so I decided to use a Sakura Micron 01 Sepia Pen to ink the entire drawing

I love using Sakura Micron Pens all the time, they have Archival Inks, and are very light fast, and very economical, and last a long time

One last step before beginning, is to do some test drawing with different lines. In this example the 01 thickness line seemed much better than the 05 thicker line.

Now I am nervous about the painting part.
