#dailycreating JUNE 2020

Time for another installment of a month of my #dailycreating drawings. Hosted by Visual Artist/Creative Encourager Terry Runyan, this Facebook group has as its lofty goal that we members do some sort of creating each day. I joined up with thir group in August, 2018, with the intent of working on my drawing skills. I just completed drawing #756 for today's creation.

I almost avidly follow the prompts Terry gives us for each day. Once in awhile, however, I do deviate  from the suggested prompt if it doesn't resonate with me. Then I'm off on my own, usually to draw up an animal or bird.

As always in these posts, I will include the #prompt for the day as well as any other information I may have about the subject matter. Most often I use a reference photo for my drawings. I'm working hard on trying to incorporate more of my imagination in my drawings. 

Here I present to you #dailycreating JUNE 2020.

I honestly did have fun with my drawing during June. At that time, I was incorporating a little colored pencil into my work to help with the look of the fur and feathers. Most of this time that worked well.

 More recently, however, I changed the type of paper I use and I am not as happy with the look of the combination of Copic Markers and Prismacolor pencils on this paper. This has forced me to go back to Copic Markers almost exclusively. I will keep playing around.

Please remember that these drawings are my own personal work and are not to be reproduced or used for anything else without my express consent. I will happily have a high quality Giclee Print made for you if you'd like. Simply contact me. Thanks for your respect.

    1. Thank you, Sara. I start out with a pencil drawing, and as I start in with the Copics I incorporate the pencil right into the drawing because once the markers go over the pencil, it cannot be erased. If I am having trouble blending, which often happens if the Copic is fairly dry, I bring in Prismacolor Pencils to help out. That's about it.
