Your Art!

^hey, i'm impressed! coffee? really? nice torso work and shading...and interesting pose; is he leaning against a wall or in motion?

Portia- You are so great

Celine- Very nice

yeah! i really like pivovarovas style with using recycled things! hahaha! and i really didn't shade... i hate using charcoal! i absolutely do!!! ...or i just need to get used to it!

i've posted this one before... but you can tell the coffee + tea + pencil blending is just better!

plus i used left over brazillian coffee and african red roiboose tea! with the charcoal one... its folgers! hahaah!

as for the dude... if you have V55, turn to page 177. I don't have the money to hire hot naked models! hahahah!

Cool work, Celine!

I'm such a fan of everything you do.

& yes I have. I'm not particularly a watercolor type of person (just because I haven't mastered how to apply watercolor effects) but I really am quite a fan of watersoluble pencils. I just love the texture that you can achieve with them. & they're much easier to use than watercolor paints, imo, even though they're still hard for me to handle at times

Why do you ask?

just curious really. i've tried experimenting with them but haven't really figured out how best to use them. do you lay down some color & then apply a wet brush to spread the color over the desired area?

& yes, pretty much

I usually start off with hardly any water and barely grazing the

surface of the pencil so that way I don't wash out the colour too

much. You can always go lighter, but it's hard to go darker.

^Probs the most obvious piece of advice I've given in my life?

to make your work good. Everyone's good at different

things and for me, personally, whenever I try to do a

sketch simply in pencil, it bombs. Pencils just aren't my friends.

Paints are, though.

& You're just so good with pencil!

Wanna share your skills with me?
