Artist's Travel Kit


 

This is a brief example of my travel kit that I take with me when away from home.  It is great for lunch breaks,  coffee shops, waiting in vehicles or any down time that you may find yourself with.  List of Materials are below.  You can make do with whatever you have on hand.   I like ball point pens on napkins if need be.  If I like something I sketched, then I take a snapshot with my iPhone.

How to Paint Tigger in Watercolor and Colored Pencils

This video demonstrates the fun of mixing watercolor paints and colored pencils. I use a scan of an earlier sketch that I print out onto smooth Bristol paper. It is a quick and easy process to workout color schemes, techniques and to have fun in general. Here I use a well-known beloved character from my childhood as the subject matter.
