I’m learning how to work with colored pencils, and am experimenting with limited palettes. Although it wasn’t intentional, this drawing is a perfect way to celebrate St. Pats day, as it only uses 4 colors: 3 of them are green, and an India red.

This is an interesting drawing for me, because it was my first since spending a few weeks working on a series of block prints. also, this uses a minimal color scheme. Only 5 colors: 3 different blues, a yellow and brown.

I’m a little sad to announce that I finished my FINAL LINOCUT (#12) for stay in Mexico. They take at least a week for the ink to dry, and I don’t have much time left here in magical Oaxaca.
I’ll still be creating for the rest of my time. Stay tuned for some more colored pencil drawings soon.
