WATERCOLOR WITH PEN & INK

These four quick little drawings are done on ordinary sketch paper using a drawing pen, a permanent marker and watercolor.

One advantage of this method is that if the artist has pen and paper on hand, something of interest can be captured while the mood strikes.  Recording color can be always be added later. Another advantage is that it is a good way of editing what you see thereby keeping the subject simple. These vignettes can be paintings in their own right or used to develop into larger works of art.

Also, for this lesson, bring in old paintings that need a little fixing up – pen and ink is a wonderful tool to resurrect an otherwise wasted watercolor.
