The black is acrylic paint; then i washed her head and dress with watered down lavender acrylic before coloring the rest in with all Prismacolor Premium pencil work; the sparkle-ey parts are Liquid Pearls....
this is a practice page to try out how i like using a mix of acrylics, and colored pencils on top of acrylic washes. the acrylic gives the paper more "tooth" i.e. it is rougher and so you don't see the white dotty surface showing through...
I used many light layers of colored pencil to get these effects....this has taken me about a week and one-half off and on....
I am not that happy with Mr. Owl--i think he needs more colors feathered in--
so i may work on him a bit more...
So, this was my Slow Sunday work...
