Leaf Ghost #225

I don’t know why the Copic ghosts photograph with a pinkish tint every once in awhile. Perhaps it has something to do with the paper.

Speaking of which, I’ve had Copics in high rotation (approximately one out of every three) because I’ve been doing them in their own sketchbook and the book’s nearly done. I’ll definitely finish it sometime this year, possibly even before the start of the summer.

The inks are the earth tones from #215, and the background is my beloved cool shadow / ice ocean combo.

Leaf Ghost #224

In the entry for #221 I mentioned that I’d started work with a new set of watercolors. My goal is to use all of the colors at least once before repeating any of them. I’ve already failed, as I reused Yellow Ochre for the shadow this time around.

 The other colors are Rose Beige, Natural Beige, Sap Green Deep and Sap Green Light.

So if the coming weeks and months feature a large number of watercolor ghosts, that’s why.
