Mixed Media on watercolor paper, 11" x 14"
For this illustrations I used a Kura Toga mechanical pencil and a Prismacolor Artgum eraser for the sketch. Watercolor paints were then added from the Marie's watercolor pan set. The colors used were, Sap Green, Viridian Green, Medium Yellow, Purple Red & Cobalt Blue. Once the watercolors dried, I erased what sketch lines I could and then added in some Derwent colored pencils in Scarlet Lake, Magenta, Red Violet Lake, Imperial Purple, Oriental Blue, Bottle Green & Olive Green. In some areas I reduced color by erasing and blending with my fingers.

I didn't get around to painting today, but I did manage to get some sketching done. I've lost the light and may sketch a bit more, but painting is out of the question for me tonight.

Watercolor Paint & Colored Pencils
This is another watercolor painting enhanced with colored pencils, or perhaps a colored pencil drawing enhance with watercolor paints? Does it depend on the order the medium is applied to the canvas?Does it matter at all? At any rate, this time I used the Derwent colored pencils before adding the Marie's watercolors.
The supply list. Kura Toga mechanical pencil and a Prismacolor Artgum eraser for the sketching. Watercolor paints - Marie's watercolor pan set. The colors used were, Chromium Oxide Green, Medium Yellow, Purple Red & Cobalt Blue. Derwent colored pencils in Magenta, Imperial Purple, Delft Blue & Bottle Green & Olive Green.
On a side note, I am finding myself enjoying using pan paints a bit more. I guess it's since I'm making smaller simple paintings it's not so much of a bother and it does save space since the mixing palette is a part of the kit.
