A Little Weird

Hi everyone

For today I have an art journal page to share. I have used Copic markers and Derwent Procolours pencils. I love using Copics and coloured pencils together, they are such a good combination. 

I always start with the skin colours first, here the E50.

Add the BV01 to create some shadow.

Add the E00 on the BV01 to create a warm skintone. 

Blend all layers together with the E000. I also decide to give her some blush with the R21. 

Her hair will be blue and I start with the darkest coloy first, the B69.

Use the B66 to blend. 

And use the lightest colour B63, next. 

I use the  R21 for her lips. 

Add the R22 next 

Than add the R24. . 

Blend all layers together with the R21. 

Her hat will be violet. I have used a lot of yellow in the background and violet/purple  is the opposite colour of yellow in the colour wheel. This means that those colours will enhance each other, but if you mix them together you will get brown.  

My first layer is BV08. 

Blend with the BV04.  I use the BV04 for her ears as well. 

Blend  the layers together with the BV02. 

Use the Y04 next. 

Add the Y08.  

I thought the flowers looked a little pale so I decided to add some more colour and to use the  R21.

Use the R22 next. 

The basic colour of her coat will be  BV02. Add some shading with the BV08. 

Blend the layers using the  BV04. 

Blend again using the BV02. 

The flowers and collar will be yellow. I use the Y04 and Y35.

Blend layers together with the Y04. 

I also used the R21 and R22 for the flowers, but unfortunately I forgot to take a photograph. 

I keep using the same colours because they go so well with the background that I want to use. 

Use the Y08 for the roof. 

Add the Y35 next. 

Blend together with the Y08 and the Y06.

Finally I use the Y04 again. 

Use the same yellow hues for the windows as well. 

For this cute house I will use the BV02. 

Than I decide to make the house more blue so I continue with the B66. 

Blend the layers using the B63. 

I want to use the blue in all the flowers and I start with the B69 first. 

Use the  B66 next. 

Blend the layers together with the B63.

For this flower I use the  BV08.

And the BV04. 

The leaves will be yellow-orange, I use the Y35 and the R21. 

For the largest flower I will add some yellow with the Y04 and the Y08.

For my third flower I use the  Y38and the Y36. 

Finally I add some coloured pencil as well, 

the Derwent Procolours : 09, 10, 20, 03, 27, 35, 32, 31 and the 28. 

Cut out all the images and glue them on your background. I have found the quote on the internet. For my lettering I used a  Molotow one4all marker, 1,5 mm nib , but you can use a  Copic multiliner as well.

Have a fabulous month

Love

Flowers are like Friends

Hello lovely Copic friends, for today's post I used a cute image by Sybile Art. 

I always start with the skin tones. My first layer is the E50. 

For shading I use the BV00.

Add E00 on the BV00. This way you create a warm skintone. 

Blend all layers together with E000.

When colouring the hair I always start with the darkest colour , this is the E09.

Blend with the YR09.

My lightest haircolour is the YR04. While blending your darker colours could end up a little paler than you want, in that case I always  add the darker colours again.

Use the B06 as your darkest colour.

Add the B04 next. 

And blend all layers together with the B02. 

I have chosen a purple- pinky colour, I start wtih the RV63.

Use as a shadowcolour the RV69. 

Blend all layers together with the RV63.

For the flower heart I use the YR14  and the Y15. 

Blend with the Y17.

Because her face looked a little pale I added some extra R21 and RV63. 

Now it's time to colour the leaves and I start with the YG11. 

I use YG11 and B00 for the wings.

Add the YG17 and the YG13 to the leaves. 

Blend all layers together with YG11.

I also add some Y13 to the leaves. 

Cut out your image and glue to a nice background, I had this one in my stash.

See you all next month
