Second Day Of Classes


Second day of classes went by smoothly.  We traveled down the bottom of Lacoste to draw the village.  It was a major hike!  Especially going back up.  I'm waiting for my art supplies to get here so that I can continue to practice the technique I started developing last quarter in my materials and techniques class.  I like to use color pencil to do a sorta under drawing, then I go over it with watercolors creating a semi finished rendered drawing, covering that with mineral sprits to blend the watercolor with the color pencil (The mineral sprits have a very interesting reaction on the water color), and then going back on top of the drawing doing final renderings with color pencils.  It's basically a spin off of the CF Payne's technique.  I hope I can improve a lot with this technique in this class because I think I could create a very strong portfolio with it.
I am very happy with the classes I have and the professors seem to be amazing.  I hope to learn a lot from them.  I hope my art supplies get here soon!  I'm so excited to start working!
Until next time y'all.
