As Promised

Here is that horrendous copy of Raeburn's Miss Eleanor Urquhart.

What I learned:

• Working in miniature size (2.5x3.5 inches) is much nicer for colored pencils
• Juxtaposition of colors is significant (that dress looked incredibly bad, until it had a background)
• For whites, color in the area with some of your main colors, then erase it
• Throwing on lines to suggest a background is an artform
• Using the same colors all over a work creates unity (OK, I knew that already, but I just saw it very clearly in his work)

Onto to more learning...
