The number of things I know about my dad can be counted on ten fingers. At the top of the list are beer and golf, usually together but separate is OK by him, too. This year's card, with an image from Pixtorals, features golf. The coloring on this was pretty minimal. I DID put in some time on those awesome plaid pants, though! I put down a layer of the yellow to establish a base and then used the colorless blender pen to pull some of the color out. In those "lanes," I added back in different colors, including a white gel pen. I also added blue around the figure and then used the colorless blender pen to soften the edges. If I'd had more time, I think I would have done a bit more with it, but I needed to get it in the mail. Please notice the "golf ball" in the upper-right hand corner. I added another ball inside that looked like it was heading to a hole. I really like the colors of the papers - very summery and fresh. FORE! |
