White Rose on Drafting Film

A B O U T M E

I am australian artist, designer, illustrator, small business owner and mother to two beautiful boys who are my constant strength and inspiration.

The majority of my work is in artists quality coloured pencils, however I also have series of works in oils, acrylics and pen.

I have created this art journal to document my journey, whether it be art, design, promotion or business. I look forward to sharing my experiences, techniques and inspirations with others and hope that it can in turn help others on their journey, or maybe might just help to fill in a bit of free internet browsing time :)

White Rose on Drafting Film

"White Rose" by Belinda Lindhardt - Coloured Pencil on Drafting Film
13X18cm, 5X7"

This is one i started a few weeks ago and which i put aside and never when back to. You can see the begining of it here.

It's been sitting there waiting to be done, one of the things on the list to do :). I am glad i finished it. To be honest i was fighting the drafting film with this one. I think i am getting used to moving the colour around more with the neocolours and stonehenge. So maybe my technique is changing. :)

No solvent, i actually tried to use solvent but i soon discovered that solvent on drafting film just tends to take all the pencil off. :) I used a combination of Polychromos and Prismacolours. I discovered that the polys tended to go down easier on the film rather than the prismas ..
i wiped regularly with a makeup pad just to take away wax bloom :); 10:09 AM
