With color pencils I like to challenge myself with new texture. This amazing cookie from a local home bakery @angelebakes. I love these cookies! It was easy to eat them, but a bit difficult to draw, but I figured things out 🧐
We had a couple snowy days in Amsterdam. I decided to express them in digital watercolor.
During the New Year holidays I almost didn’t draw, only 2 city sketches based on the lessons of Anna Egida at Kalacheva school.
When I was in cafe in the heart of Amsterdam I saw through the window beautiful houses. I made a photo, thinking that later I can make a drawing from it.
I am new to watercolor. I was afraid of this medium for a long time. But this year I started to watch online tutorials and do simple projects. I made this one after taking the "Tattoed Whale - An adventure in watercolor" class by Janet Asbury on Skillshare.
The class explains how to use masking fluid to get the effect of white "tattoo" on a whale.
