I'm waiting for R to get back from Copenhagen - getting used to his absence 4 days a week is proving difficult. As always art is a good distraction though, so I've been drawing a bit more in my accordion sketchbook tonight.
I picked my keys to draw, partly because one of them is green and fits well with the green already present from my first entry. I decided to use a little white gouache as well, to make the little rabbit on my keychain pop.
I tried painting with the watrbrush, but M has been using it and it bled red into the gouache, so I fetched a glass of water and a clean brush instead.
I think the white does make the rabbit pop out of the plane of the paper, the way I wanted it to.
I'm trying to figure out how I can make use of the effect of the folding pages - there must be something extra to be had from those, other than just the possibility of pulling out the entire length of paper into a continuous frieze. Although the book-to-frieze and back again is also cool.
POP goes the rabbit!
Micron 0.1 mm ink pen, generic green coloured pencil, HB 0.5 mm mechanical pencil, and a touch of white gouache.
