Trying to get my challenge done this week I pulled out a tile I started the night before. This was the perfect tile to work on during a meeting. Pokeroot and drupe are two tangles that play very nicely with each other.
I knew I wanted to work on a green tile so I picked out several of my hand colored tiles. I had the green pen but I used one of my favorite tricks to see which tile it looked best on. Junk mail has little plastic windows that have just enough tooth to hold the ink of the pen. So I scribble a bit and see which combination makes me happier.
I shaded with a green colored pencil and highlights were added with a white chalk pencil.
What a great idea to audition ink colors! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHa! Great tip!

ReplyDeleteI like the way you texture the pokeroot: it looks like little mushrooms there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to use that envelop this way! Your tile is very beautiful.

ReplyDeleteIts already been said, but I just gotta repeat it... What a GREAT idea to test pen colors on colored backgrounds!!! I hope my brain can remember that one!!! Thanks for sharing.
