EDM 266 - something you cherish



EDM challenge 266 - draw something you cherish. My wedding rings, need I say more? But, wow it's difficult to paint metal!

The other two sketches are from a very sunny day on my friends' porch, I love that spring is finally here. I used the wrong pen for the sunglasses sketch, and used water soluble ink, but it made for a pretty interesting effect.

  8. Good subject for 'something you cherish' but not easy as you said. I like the sunglasses too, they have a loose feel to them.

  9. These are all great! I've not tried metals yet; it seems so difficult just looking at it! And I agree, the water-soluble ink worked well with the sunglasses!
