| blocked in. |
The basic shapes are blocked in and the baseline colors are
established. Drawing on this colourfix paper is like drawing on sandpaper. It
eats the colored pencils. You can work effectively with lesser pencils at the
base level. I even got out some old crayola colored pencils. I do not recommend
these to students because they are so hard as to be frustrating, but the rough
surface of this paper did take them with greater saturation than normal. So
this was a good use of the harder, cheaper pencils. While this does has plenty
of tooth, one of my major complaints for most papers, I am wondering if this
paper has a little too much tooth!
The grayish background tones down the colors nicely and I
think it will give an overall nice feeling to this drawing.

| starting the second layer |
Now that I established the basic level on this drawing I can
start working on building up the layers and working in more and more details.
It has been a challenge, as I am not as familiar with western tack as I am with
English. There are many more do-dads! I will start adding more and more levels
of value to all of the shapes, defining them more and more.
