I know what you mean about scanning and color. When I scan my illustrations it's just not the same. So I go into photo shop and try to brigthen them up, but end up loosing some of the definition. I use color pencils too for most of my illustrations.
I am an artist in transition, a wanna be writer, self employed. I knew no one in Texas when I moved here in 1980. I live on a small farm surrounded by suburbia. The farm is for sale. So unless I win the lottery or marry a wanna be farmer I will eventually be moving and starting yet another chapter in my life. For now I create something daily while I discover who I want to be when I grow up.

the scales on the fish could be better drawn.

P.S. Tell "dave" to go fish.
Very nice. Looks like it may have taken a while.
I think its great!
Unlike Dave up there, I like the way you drew the scales. The colors are serene too.
thank you, Dave, for your construction criticism.
How do you know it's a fish?
I like my rendition of scales.
Hi Rick, thanks for stopping by!
when my scanner works the color was just right! It's an HP.
I love the "logo" you did for the really famous Dawn...
kstyles, thank you!
This sketch took close to 4 hours.
All the drawings and sketches and ACEOs are done while I am at work. So in between phone calls I "color"
As soon as my farm sells I'm going FT as an artist (and writer), painting canvases again.
Thank you, Sanity.
I really appreciate when Sane people leave me comments!
Valeriannah, thank you!
there are at least six colors used, maybe eight. Shades of Greens, blues, aquas, violets.
what a lovely name you have!
Thank you ALL for visiting my place.
I'll be visiting y'all this afternoon.
Fridays are my half days. The rest of the week I'm chained to my cube for 9 1/2!
