New Sketchbook!


Bought my second Moleskine's pocket sketchbook on Friday. The old one officially retired today.

This time, I'm going all out. I'm not limiting myself with just pens and pencils and some cheesy brush pens.
I'm going to start experimenting with other medias like washes, like watercolors.
Especially watercolors.



Graphite.
One of the best favorite actress ever.
Sorry if she's kinda hard to tell who. It still not quite distinctive enough.
Note to self: need to work on that, the characteristic. All the facial of my life human figure drawing looks the same. =\





Voila!
Watercolor test with one of those pocket-size mini watercolor set (comes with 12 tiny pans and super cute brush =D
Ok. First impression: awkward!
I is totally unlike painting with oil/acrylic, where you have to actually "scrape" the gum and I can't get a consistent color. Mixing color is a nightmare. Haha.
Oh, I'll figure this one out and get the proper techniques eventually, pretty soon.





Sepia pencil + brush pen + pencil graphite.
It's symbolic. Haha.
