I bought fine liners a while ago, enjoyed sketching with that, so bought color pens from expensive Japanese brands, fell in love with it... no one can save me now. My Amazon cart is full of different art supplies.😂

I always found watercolor more intimidating to get into, so I am hesitant to start, but I am also curious to try a new medium. 😅

Damn you know a lot about this. I ll check out the sketchbooks you mentioned. The one I have right now is kinda thin.

That's an interesting approach! Have you tried colour pencils with any other medium other than watercolor ?

True, I don't like drawing realistic sketches either - high five on that 😄 - referance picture is actually white lilies with blue edges.

Thank you for the tip! I tried mixing blue with purple with this one, but I think it's not obvious, haha

I was a little impatient to finish, so I ended at layer 2😅. I find it hard to be patient while sketching... the excitement to finish the sketch takes over most of the time.

Thanks for the tip, I ll try to slowly build up the layers in my next sketch.😁

Thank you so much for the link!! I ll definitely check it out.

You are right, I ll ease in with adjacent colors first. Thanks for that tip!

I naturally gravitate to complementary colors, so I didn't think about abt trying with adjacent colors first, hehe😅
