Cherry Trees in marker and brush

Well I have survived another week of work and came home to work on the passion for art.  I used an ink brush to paint the trunks.  An Ink Brush is like a fountain pen with an ink cartridge but instead of a nib if has a brush tip.  I then used two colors of pink markers, three colors of brown and two of green for the rest.  I think this would have been better if the color was added with watercolor paint but I have been trying the markers to figure out the best applications for its use.

Horses at Play

Back to some Marker work and Ink Brush.  Done is a Sumi style.

Charcoal Glass Still Life

More Charcoal Work of Glass and China.  A bit big for the scanner.

Sepia still life

Tonight's work is more still life work, this time in Sepia chalk.

Still Life in Charcoal

Charcoal work of glass ware.  I think I need to work this a little more to improve some of the background and the shadows.  Working in charcoal is a great way to develop skills.  All part of the 10,000 hours needed to master things. Though mastery is an elusive goal, you always need to be learning.

Still life in Sanguine

Still Life in Sanguine chalk while nervously watching the Stanley Cup hockey game.  Just a little ADHD here.  Go CAPS!

Just a quick post of a pine trees study done in oil.  An experiment in different greens, partially done.
