pencil and crayon 21x21cm
I had a little brainwave when cloud sketching last week – don’t use watercolour.
I’ve had various crayons hanging about for ages and never really used them, but on this particular sunny afternoon last week it all fell into place. The drawing is on very some thin copy paper that I had handy, and luckily I didn’t have to be too robust.
I’m quite pleased with it – it has quite an energetic dash and gets the general brightness across. It’s not just all effect either, and I’m sure that there’s enough re-creatable information here to use as reference for other work.
In case you’re wondering, the number 156 is the sketch sheet number. All my A4 out-the-window sketches are numbered and kept in order.
This is the first time that I’ve ever referred to a page number, and now that I think about it, I’m not actually sure why I started.
It does sound like I’m very organised and know what I’m doing though…
