Recent ATCs

Little leftover bits of nice art paper are great to use for artist trading cards or bookmarks. Here are a few ATCs I've done lately. I don't have much chance to trade, but when the opportunity arises I'll be well stocked! These began with random scribbling with water-soluble colored pencils, a water wash that I let dry, then pens and more colored pencils.

The blue pear has a black background, which barely shows up against the other black background!

  6. Oh, I love these. The colors are beautiful and so are the tangles. I don't usually like tangles with color, but these are so soft and pretty. I'd love to learn how to do them.
