Sertoma Mixed Media (October, November, December 2015)

Rubber cement resist texture, step 1, watercolor.  Can be done with acrylic and gouache as well.

Rubber cement resist texture, step 3, watercolor.  This is after the 3rd pass of rubber cement and paint.  Here I decide to add more or remove the rubber cement.

I have added more colored pencil to this watercolor under painting (the surface is Stonehenge paper).  

The Transparent Watercolor Ground and Clear Gesso on plexi (one on each side) with watercolor on one side and colored pencil on the other.  I have added the watercolor to the back and added another layer of shading to the skin.  I work gently with the pencil and mostly on the side.

This is the same process from another class.  Both need more work of course.

This is an example of our next project.  We will do a different subject matter.  We will do alcohol inks on translucent yupo and then add a clear gesso (Liquitex) and work in colored pencil on top.

This is a similar example, just not as far along as the first.
