Playing with white colored pencil on Black Stonehenge Aqua paper. For some reason the process of working white on black feels very freeing.

More work on Tree Line
I darkened the trunks and added a ground plane. I think I might have been better off doing the ground plane in watercolor. I may add some dancing satyrs in.

Tree Line – Work in Progress
I’m still workoing on getting the hang of working in colored pencil. I like the wispy look that I get by using optical mixing and letting the paper show through. Unfortunately that means that the photos I post have to be roughly the same size as the actual artwork or smaller. Blowing the size up makes them look too grainy. At some point I should try doing a large piece but I actually like making artwork that I can hold in one hand and prop up on my desk. This one is about 5 inches by 7 inches.

Satyr Number 1
I’ve been doing lots of mermaids lately so I thought I should try a satyr. 3 inches by 4 inches on bamboo multimedia paper using Derwent Drawing colored pencil.

Mushroom Matrix
One from the vaults. I did this back in 2012. Obviously there are some issues with it but I still like. It’s something I woould like to revisit at some point. As I recall this was done in Pen & Ink with a little bit of digital cleanup.

I hadn’t intended to make this mermaid so young looking but that’s just the way things turn out some times.
2.5 x 3.5 inches on Fabriano Artistico HP paper. Colored pencil over watercolor background.

I really like the way this Stonehenge Aqua HP paper takes colored pencils.
