I think the reason others may not think to do this is because most people (it seems) prefer bright unnatural "pure" colors. This is very beautiful and subdued, and exactly the kind of look I am attracted to. Wonderful technique, I especially love the moss!

@paintingandchocolate Жыл бұрын

Yes about the pure colors, we have similar tastes then, I love the slightly dark, mysterious atmospheres.

@SabineLeppanen_Art Жыл бұрын

Wow! Gorgeous artwork! Do you actually use the lighter water-soluble graphite pencils much? I find myself just using the darkest ones.

@paintingandchocolate Жыл бұрын

Same, mostly the darkest ones 🙂

@xxxx-qo9dh Жыл бұрын

I disagree with your statement that bright colors are unnatural, it seems a little shallow to me to think that way. Look at a field of wild flowers, how are those bright colors ‘unnatural’? Just because it isn’t your taste, it doesn’t mean that it is unnatural. I like subdued, bright, mystic, it just all depends on what the artwork is about.

I had a different watersoluble graphite set a few years ago and hated it, but bought this set of five this year. Have not used it much but liked it much better. You have given me some inspiration! I very often want to draw into paintings because I want the punchiness that a drank line can give and the immediacy of placing a mark with precision.never though of placing this process later rather than first! I guess I have always been influenced by pen and wash, where really the watercolour is the bit that gets filled in almost as an afterthought.

Françoise, I'm intrigued because I feel sure you do this normally, but you didn't here.... Gently rolling (not rubbing) a putty rubber (kneadable eraser) over the initial drawing will take off the excess graphite, leaving just a very light, but still visible sketch. Soften the putty rubber into a sausage and roll it gently with the rounded part of your palm (the mound under the thumb). If it's a large area, the eraser will get grubby, so stretch and re-roll the eraser to make a clean part and continue. This way, there's no excess graphite to move and make a mess when going over it with water or paint. 😊

Ahhhh the Graphite Aquarelle! I bought that set of 5 on a whim, and it turns out they’re such a beautiful material! I use them by themselves on monochrome watercolor paintings though - never tried them in combination with multicolored watercolors like you did. Your results are amazing… really really lovely, you used the darkness of the graphite really well! I’m impressed at how well it blends with the other colors. However, graphite is sort of shimmery and/or luminescent so I bet those pieces can only fully be experienced in person, as these subtleties tend to not photograph well. 😺 Come to think of it, Daniel Smith makes this Graphite Gray watercolor paint that is made with pigment PBk10 which is actual graphite powder. I never tried it but I bet it should look a lot like the Graphite Aquarelle… 🤔

@paintingandchocolate Жыл бұрын

You're right about Daniel Smith, I already went and bought this paint to compare, waiting to receive it 🙂
