Sunday Sketches

TomBow Markers on Yupo paper. This is the first time I've actually used markers on this paper and they work really well. I think so at least.

With not a lot of pigment on the paper, you get pretty good colour coverage when you add water. I need to try some different markers to see how they react on the paper.

    What a beautiful peacock! I've been thinking about painting a peacock or two, well, they're on my wish list of yet to paint... Yours is looking great, I haven't tried yupo papers before.

    Stunning peacock Jennifer, he's really strutting his stuff. So vibrant too.
    I've not used both of those products.
    Have a great week :D

    Ooooo! I love this peacock and how the markers and water flows so nicely together. I think I need to try it out!

    thanks Lisa :) Yupo is like a cross between paper and plastic, some people love it, some hate it lol

    thank you Victoria :)

    thanks Chris :)

    thank you Christine :)

    Rose, thanks :) I'm not a fan of it with watercolour, takes too long to dry but I like it with the markers :)

    thanks Neesie :) the markers are nice, not lightfast and they are watersoluble, so not for art you want to last a long time but if you are just going to scan the art they are fine to use :) the paper can be hit or miss with people :)

    thanks Leslie :) you should try it :)

    thank you alarmcat :)

    thanks Paula :) its not much money if you look around. might be easier to find online since its not an everyday type of paper :)
