Whimsical Face


 I found this Elegant Writer tutorial on Karen Campbell's mixed media Youtube channel. She is the owner of Awesome Art School.

I really love playing with the Elegant Writer Pen and drawing girls is another favorite of mine.

I drew this girl in pencil following Karen and went over my lines with the Elegant Writer Pen. I went over those pen lines with a damp brush and blotted some with a paper towel. When I blot the drawing, more pink ink comes out of the Elegant Writer Ink.

I let it dry and went over the drawing again for a second layer in a few spots. After it dried I added highlights with a white Sharpie Paint Marker. The marker is water based.

I enjoyed working on this and look forward to more of the same!
