Felt tip pen and color pencil
I have always liked these pieces on this watercolor paper. When I did them they just rolled out. I was experimenting with styles and mixing ink with colored pencil.
I was experimenting with my materials a lot. Came across this thick water color paper and did as many drawings as sheets of paper. I think it came in a drawing book or pad of ten sheets that you can get at any art supply store.
All of the figures represent me. That’s me being me, exploring, changing directions at the same time I am noticing the beauty of a tree.
I wanted to animate my drawings; one way was to give the viewers eyes paths to follow.
