From an advertisment

This is quite old drawing. This come from 2010, the time of the drawing course. I copied a picture from a well-known commercial.. I hope I'm not violating some rule here >_<
I used charcoal pencil for the rocks. Chalk sticks for sky and water (only few primary colors), sanguigne and sepia pencil for the red rocks. I think also some touches with few oil pastel, diluted with turpentine. I tried to reproduce the fog effect with white pastel, but only got a burnishing effect. I forgot the boy is in marker.

Paesaggio in Ormicello 2

Sabato ho fatto un acquerello ispirato allo studio che feci a Ottobre (qui). Ho provato il nuovo acquisto: gli acquerelli per artisti Horadam Schminke (set da 12 + 12 posti vuoti). La qualità è buona.  Io ho provato solo i Cotman della Winsor & Newton, che comunque fanno il loro lavoro. Rispetto a questi però ho trovato una maggiore uniformità nella stesura e una più agevole sovrapposizione nelle velature (per i colori più trasparenti).

Last Saturday I made a watercolour inspired by a recent trip I did some months ago. I tried my new watercolour from Horadam Schminke. The quality is good! I've only tried Winsor & Newton Cotman. The colors are livelier and less granular. The overlapping of transparent glazes leads to a better result in terms of color richness.

Acquerello su carta (circa 35x25)


Fra l'altro ho cominciato anche un lavoro ad olio sempre ispirato a quel bozzetto..

Besides I begun an oil painting from thi study.
