Re: Ulla's Virtual Art Journal June 2012
Thank you, Joan and Debby!
Here comes something different - I have been experimenting with markers and coloured pencils, and here are some leaf studies:

The first step is to colour with markers. Then I added another shade of green, blue or even yellow with my coloured pencils, and in the end went over it again with a colourless blender marker. |

Interesting leaf studies. The two media seem to work well together.

Another dragon
This version of the dragon was first done with a light red copic marker (almost pinkish), and then worked over with coloured pencils in various shades of red.

Super dragon. The expression on it's face is great.

Re: Ulla's Virtual Art Journal June 2012
Thank you, Joan and Debby! It's the combination of markers and coloured pencils that does it, I think.

Re: Ulla's Virtual Art Journal June 2012
Fantasy red flower
I had no special flower in mind when I did this, it is just "a flower". Again first the markers and then the pencils (coloured pencils as well as wc pencils, dry), and then the colourless blender marker.

Re: Ulla's Virtual Art Journal June 2012
First Acrylic piece
I spent one week with my friends, and one of them is an expert with acrylic paints. I could try out his paints and brushes, and decided to have a go when I was back in Berlin.
This painting has been done on watercolour paper the size of a postcard.
