Description old falling down house
credits go to =FairieGoodMother for the original photograph

i thought it was awsome and i just had to make a drawing of it.
but i wanted to give it a more depressed feeling so it is a bit darker/greyer in color.... i did it because it was an old abandoned house .

i have used pastel paper( slight yellow tint) and derwent inktense pencils

i've just bought the inktense pencils and wanted to try them out.

i've used the following colors:

antique white
payne's grey
madder brown
spring green
deep indigo
felt green
iris blue
ink black

i gave the drawing a slight grey basecolor on the most parts and worked the colors over it to get that slight grey tone shining through

since it was my first time using inktense i didnt dare to use water to give it that aquarel look. ... afraid i might mess the drawing up.
besides i think it looks great the way it is.

this is number 243

Thank you! Inktense is great. Lately i work only with charcoal but yeah inktense is pretty nice to work with.

I still need to get the hang of it but i really like inktense.

I hope it works well for your works of art.
