Booker WIP

REALLY going slow on this one! 

 I so need to get motivated and get this done!

But it's been just sooooo nice out and my garden keeps calling....

and Cooper needs walks........

and yard needs mowed.......

collars and camera strap orders needed made.......

and Cooper needs walked, oh, did I say that again?

well, he does love his walks!

WIP-Booker, Horse

OK, back to a more normal subject! (well normal for me anyways)

10”x13” Colored pencil over a light watercolor underpainting on 300lb. Fabriano Artistico

Here's my messy watercolor layer. (should've made it darker)

The first pencil layer.  And of course I had to start the eye.

It's kinda hard to see but I embossed some of the hair on his mane with a small stylus.  Not sure if I want them to be this light yet but now's the time to do it.   I normally use this technique for whiskers but thought I'd try it for this.  

And here's my attempt a getting a photo of the embossed lines.
