Right after a regular vet check-up last Monday, this tooth fell out. Followed by at least one more baby tooth every day we were away on a trip to Arkansas to visit friends. Ceilidh's permanent teeth are coming in so fast, she appears to have grown a goofy grin overnight!
We came home over the weekend but other "catch-up" tasks have prevented me from finishing up some trip sketches. Hopefully I'll upload them soon.
I love how you did this with the tooth in the white circle. You have a nice way of creating your pages!
ReplyDeleteI meant to ask earlier.........do you paint first following with pen and ink or pen first and then paint?
ReplyDeleteHi, Susan! I learned the circle bit from Kate (Cathy Johnson). This on-line connection of artists / sketchers is great for picking up ideas!
ReplyDeleteI always use ink first, using Noodler's polar black or Lexington gray usually, sometimes a Noodler's sepia (which isn't always waterproof). Depending on the paper, I may wait a bit to make sure it is dry.
After adding the watercolor, sometimes I may re-instate a few ink lines if needed -- but rarely.
Definitely the on-line connection of artists is fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing about your pen work. I'll have to try that where you use the pen/ink first.
I DO love your work!
