Moon
From Wynken, blynken and nod
Watercolor, ink, pencil | 9.5 x 11 inches
“The old moon laughed and sang a song,
As they rocked in the wooden shoe,
And the wind that sped them all night long
Ruffled the waves of dew.”Process…
sketch it…
practice it…
using Photoshop or ProCreate (iPad), quickly lay out the figures and composition (including value helps!)print the sketch at final size and practice each of the element details (use tracing paper over the sketch)
build it…
draw it…
scan practice sketches and import into Photoshop and build the final composition digitally (as layers)print the previous step and transfer to watercolor paper using a light board (I love using an ink quill-style pen with nib!)
