Project 365 ~ #278
#278 of 365 Daily Drawings
Inspiration: Pride week in Toronto & the children's book Rainbow Fish
Result: Scales of equality
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Sakura Micron 005 & 02, Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer watercolour pencils & PITT pen white in a Stillman & Birn Zeta series sketchbook
Location: Home
Note: Continuing to test the 180lb. Zeta paper from Stillman & Birn....in this case it was using watercolor on the reverse side of yesterdays' drawing ~ result is still no warping nor bleed through. While these hardbound books are designed to open so you can draw across the pages I'd not yet tried it ~ but here I did and it works REALLY well to create a two page illustration (although scanning it not so much)
The bonus for me, testing out this 5 1/2 " x 8 1/2" hardbound volume is that it is smaller than I am accustomed to working in and I've already picked-up the Epsilon for my trip drawing journal...so I won't be fussing as I work on a smaller space, I can just create! :)
