Hi
Changed my computer so have not been on for a while. On Friday I went back to the drawing lessons and had to draw a butterfly on a leaf.

I drew it using a 6B pencil and then used water colour pencils to colour it. I have found it easier to use a brush to remove the colour from the pencil and then colour as if painting. If you want a graduated colour effect then using the pencil directly onto the paper and then spreading it out with the brush works fine but for anything else I prefer to simply use the pencil as a source of paint. The pencils are very easy to carry around and clean to use. A brilliant idea.
