More inktense

"Come in number AB 104, your time is up."

Well I don't know who owns 'AB 104' but that was enjoyable three hours working the Inktense Pencils outdoors down near the Marina in Aberystwyth and then finishing off with water and a brush inside one of my favourite coffee shops.  This particular piece of art is approximately 7 x 5 inches on 'Hot' Langford watercolour paper. 

It was also the first time that I tried out my big floppy hat bought for me by one of my daughters to keep the sun off me when out and about painting or drawing.  The hat was a success too, so all in all, it's been a great day!

Sutton Medieval Bridge Pastels Snow Scene

The last piece of original artwork that I uploaded was a Pastel Pencil drawing of the Sutton Medieval Packhorse Bridge in the village of Sutton, England.  That pastel artwork was completed on thick 160g orange pastel paper (see earlier post).  The pastel paper colour was allowed to show through when representing the Sutton packhorse bridge and other parts of the pastel pencil drawing.  The second piece that I completed over Easter 2015 was another A3 size image of the same bridge (shown below).   This new image was constructed using soft pastels (a combination of artist quality Schmincke, Jacksons, and now out of production narrow Rowney pastel sticks). This representation of the Sutton Medieval Bridge has a slightly different perspective than the image that I completed earlier over this Easter weekend, and of course unlike the Summer scene in the former, this one is in the grip of winter.
