Another brilliant demonstration and explanation in real time. Also love reading you reply to the comments and the detailed explanations. Many many thanks.🙏
Thanks Mike, I am always glad to reply and offer any help or advice I can. It is so nice that you find the videos useful and take the time to comment as it is greatly appreciated.
Beautiful work! I have done that technique using the burnishing and used colored pencil to glaze over with great results. You are very talented! Thank you for sharing your technique.
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. So many techniques transfer from one medium to the other, it is always nice to know how people use it.
Hi John and thank you. The fur is first indented into the paper with a dart then when a blunt pencil is used over the top the indentation shows through and looks white, if the effect looks to harsh you can just brush tone down into the indentations with a blending stump or alternatively parts can be lightened by rolling a fine point on a kneadable eraser and lightly brushing tone away. It is a very effective technique but unfortunately takes a long time. The darts have to be filed down as they are too sharp to start with and could cut the paper, also a tough Hot Press watercolour paper is best around 300gsm. I use St Cuthbert's Saunders Waterford or Arches Aquarelle. Hope this was of help and if you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
It is an absolute pleasure to share my lunch today watching you work. Such talent, amazing work m8.
