Another week of mixed media eye drawings in the mini sketchbook

 

Really been enjoying my recent mixed media eye drawings...

I love how the water-soluble pencils add interest and depth to my drawings...

While keeping it "loose" and artsy. :)

While saving lots of time too.

Happy Thursday friends!

This week in mixed media eye drawings

 

Still exploring the mix of watersoluble coloured pencils and regular coloured pencils. :)

This week in eye drawings - experimenting with watersoluble mediums

 

So I didn't really like how much the paper buckled when using traditional watercolours and experimented with other watersoluble mediums for the base layer this week.

Like Derwent Inktense coloured pencils. On this one.

And this one.

Plus this one..

And this one....

Then I found some Staedtler watercolour pencils and gave those ago on this eye.

This one was done with Derwent Aquatone crayons.

Definitely glad my neglected art supplies finally got some play time. :)

Mixed Media Monday - playing with watercolours and coloured pencils on my eye drawings

 

Since the paper in my new sketchbook is a bit thicker, I decided to see how much water it can take. The first layer is done with watercolours...and then finished with coloured pencils.

The paper does buckle a little and you can't really lift the colour off (since it's not watercolour paper) but with most of the "skin" part done, the eye drawing took significantly less time to complete *high fives all around*,

Happy week ahead friends!

Friday's desk - this week's eye drawings from the new sketchbook

 

 

So I started a new sketchbook. *dramatic music plays in the background*

It's a small one - 4x4 Goldmine by Clairefontaine...so that it fits into my colour pencil travel box.

It's got a bit of texture so I'm not sure if I like it or not.

The week in 6 eye drawings

 

Going full-steam ahead with the eye drawings in my toned tan sketchbook. Just 2 more eye drawings and I would have completed another eye sketchbook *high fives all around*!

Two weeks' worth of eye drawings

 

This is possibly the only creative thing I've been keeping up with lately. So here is two week's worth of eye drawings! *winks*

Happy week ahead friends!

Thursday's desk - another week in eye drawings

 

So I was in Bangkok last week and managed to sneak in a few drawings during happy hour...*yay...go me!*

I was furiously getting my eye drawn before I lost daylight....

While the servers made sure I had a replenishment of gin and tonic....

Gasp! Do I draw better while intoxicated? *dramatic music plays in the background* 

Happy Thursday friends! :)
