Title – Carousel May 19 Description – This was my first time using Canson paper – it is ultra smooth and difficult to lay down colour, however it did take quite a few layers before the wax started to leave little blobs. This paper would better serve pen and ink. I had wanted to draw my own carousel horse figurine at some point so this gave me the opportunity to do one (even if it was not my own). Medium - Prismacolor Premier, Faber-Castell Pitt Pens to glaze the reds and green background of the flowers on the saddle, Gamsol to blend the red floor then more cp added and finally Faber-Castell Pitt Pens to glaze Paper & Size – Canson Bristol Smooth Ultra bright A4 Time Taken 4 days Reference – Colored Pencil Magazine June Challenge, Background sky my imagination
