| This is the start of the dogwood in colored pencil superimposed over a textured watercolor background. The background was made with watercolor and rubber cement (remind me to show you next class). |

| This is the first step in the dogwood on a textured background made specifically for the dogwood. The drawing was transferred first and then the paper was dampened and color was loosely painted and salt added (watercolor on watercolor paper). |

| This is colored pencil over an abandoned 'ugly' painting. The painting had become muddy and awful so I decided to use it for a mixed media. This type works great for colored pencil and pen & ink over the top. I used pen & ink in the dark areas, on the glasses, and to add texture and pattern on the shirt (need to do more). I then used a white pencil to add my lights. Next I used light peach, peach, and sienna brown for the skin. I added a little red to the shirt as well. |
