Description The Sketchbook Project 2011 - Climb! (Mushrooms 2)

This is on pages 22 and 23 of my sketchbook. Took longer than the other doodles simply because the spots on those toadstool mushrooms needed to be left white, which meant that I had to color around them. Setting up for the next adventure. ^^

For the rest of the sketchbook pages, please see my Sketchbook Project 2011 folder .

It's Prismacolor pencils. (Did you want to know specific color names within this brand? Because I know exactly which ones. ^^)

EvaRusso In reply to aruarian-dancer [2010-12-02 14:42:17 +0000 UTC]

aww, I cannot find prismacolour here in Belgium
But i'd really like to know which and how many colours you used for the mushrooms they are gourgeous

aruarian-dancer In reply to EvaRusso [2010-12-02 15:04:58 +0000 UTC]

I wonder if eBay ships to Belgium? I bought my brand new set on eBay at a nice discount. ^^ I'm sure you can get your hands on some fabulous European brands of colored pencils.

Anyway, the colors used on the mushrooms were as follows.

Sand (Sable)
Canary Yellow (Jaune Canari)
Spanish Orange (Orange Espagnol)
Golden Rod (Verge d'Or)
Orange (Orange)
Poppy Red (Rouge Pavot)
Crimson Red (Rouge Cramoisi)
Sienna Brown (Terre de Sienne)
Tuscan Red (Rouge Toscan)
Dark Brown (Brun FoncΓ©)
Lilac (Lilas)-- for the shading on the white spots

Just about every part of the mushroom (with exception to the white spots) has multiple layers of different colors. ^^

I normally work with Derwent pencils, and they are not bad, but I'll surely look up e-bay for Prisma

Toadstools are such pretty mushrooms. I felt that a fantasy series is not complete without showing a few of these. lol
Thank you. My old habit returned so quickly once I brought out my box of colored pencils.

Thank you for following this project. I originally thought I'd have trouble coming up with ideas to fill 80 pages, but now when I open a blank page, a scene kind of presents itself with her in it. Kind of like how a story starts to write itself after certain point.

Thank you.
