That was intended only for three of us who were learning to draw to exchange criticisms. I've only been drawing and painting for about 6 months or so... a rank beginner. I never intended that that actual, you know, *artists* see it. Too late now, I guess.<BR/><BR/>Anyway - if you found the red ink/blue watercolor drawings, I was using Noodler's Red-Brown ink, which seems to work magically well with ultramarine watercolors - it's the ink closest to burnt sienna, I think. My travelling kit is: one fountain pen, one altoids tin with some colors, but a lot of blue, squeezed out in it and dried, and one Japanese waterbrush, done.Thi Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15468390476638893017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998420814250658360.post-30116120274524600752008-07-31T13:01:00.000+01:002008-07-31T13:01:00.000+01:00Cheers for this tip, thi n - I just had a look at ...Cheers for this tip, thi n - I just had a look at your blog: yes, that sounds like a good combination. I will try and post. I've been using neo ii for colour washes, but something even sparser as the red/blue combo sounds intriguing.

Draw in red, and wash in blue - pure paper is the highlight, washed red is your warm, blue is your cool, and the mix is like ultramarine and burnt sienna - beautiful greys.Thi Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15468390476638893017noreply@blogger.com
