Is is a busy time in the lead up tp Clunes Booktown Festival in less than two weeks. I have over 80 ‘drawn in’ books for my stall. This weekend I finished drawing in the last books and started the next steps of organising for the stall. This inclused, creating spreadsheets, making, signs, getting out the four siotcases, and all of the boook themes greeting cards that will also be abailable for purchas.

This week I have a short video for you.

Sketching a passionfruit with watercolour pencils. I meant to sketch it last weekend, so now they are a bit sad looking. I ate them as soon as I did the sketch. They were from our local community garden out the back of the Library.

I then added the watercolour pencil colours for you. They are:

• Black
• Dark Naples Ochre (not in my everyday kit, but it was out on the table)
• Light Cadmium Yellow
• Magenta
• Blue Violet
• Chrome Oxide Green
• Grass Green

I used small and medium paintbrushes, instead of the waterbrush that I use out and about.

I wiped the brush on a papertowels in between colours.

Any questions? Just ask !

Happy sketching.

I have new Travel Sketching with Watercolour Pencil dates available for books, ,as well as other classes. See them all on my website,
