When I paint in acrylic my results are often abstract - not always intentionally.

I've really liked the results I get when sketching with Inktense. It has the control of drawing and if I add water I get effects similar to watercolors.

Montana!

Pencil and watercolor. Trying to find the best way to paint and draw birds and flowers.

Pigma micron - sketches to learn to draw mountains.

Green ink here - I've tried different ink colors, but prefer to use black and add color with watercolor (carefully because the black ink isn't permanent)

Cut Paper

Paper cut and double sided taped. I used tweezers. The last one was moving pieces around - trying different backgrounds, not committing to a final composition.

Collage

Using Photoshop I put old sketches, drawings and paintings together.
