Chill


I'm doodling like crazy. My sister used to have a cap like that when we were little.

I LOVE your work!!
What all did you use to create this piece?
I see ink, watercolor... what else?
Thanks,

Thank you, mo! I basically inked the outlines first and then scanned the image to my computer. All the colour is added later in Photoshop, the watercolour splash as well. This is usually how I make all my images, although I would like to start doing more colouring by hand, I like the spontaneity and certain authenticity achieved that way. And also I would have more finished looking pieces to hang on my walls! I just bought myself a set of oil pastels, so hopefully I'll be posting some new (genuinely hand-made) work soon!

you are in my bookmarks since the tennis player, and I am fond of what you draw. nice colours, fresh drawing, I am a little jalous....

Thanks, itadakimasu! It's funny you said you're jealous, because I remember I was a bit intimidated by the coolness of your blog when I posted a comment there! Your work is excellent.
