Amaryllis Apple Blossom continued

 

Amaryllis Apple Blossom

 On November 10 I planted a new amaryllis bulb.  One of two that I purchased this year.  I'm hoping to journal it's progress starting with these two sketches.  

October 3 and 5 sketches

 Trying some new things, some fall subjects, different sketchbooks - October sketching.

The Black Sketchbook

I started doodling in my black sketchbook with my Posca markers, once I saw that they would actually work on black paper.  

I decided to do some colored ink/marker, maybe mixed media sketches in October instead of the usual Inktober all ink sketching.  The first two are in the black sketchbook, but I may use other sketchbooks also.  

 

A Selfie

 

A self portrait done for Up For a Challenge Sunday Challenge.  Done with a .03 Micron pen that was running out of ink.  I actually did this while looking at myself in my external computer camera because I didn't have a mirror that I could use while seated.  I think I missed some wrinkles.  LOL

Catching Up On Posting

 Some of the sketches I've been doing with ink, watercolor, and sencils.  The chickens were from a photo on Pixabay, and done as a two page spread.  

Sketches with prepainted backgrounds

 These are some of the pages that I've been playing with this summer.  Watercolor/or acrylic stenciling or prepainted backgrounds with direct pen sketching.
