This reminds me of childhood trips to the beach, we were lucky to grow up near the ocean and get to enjoy views like this in real life, now and then.
The image is lightly coloured with copics, and then the airgun was used for the sky and sand.
As you can see here in this second picture, a silver gel pen was used to highlight a whale, and I dug out a birds feather to decorate it--a beach is never complete without some birds!
And here is a picture of my family at the beach when I was quite small. I'm the little one on the right, next to my dad, and my sister is the one hanging on to my grandmother. My mom must have been taking the photo.
The weekend is almost here, I'll be tidying up the house, and maybe playing a round of golf....oh yes, and hubby has promised to take me out and teach me how to park...hopefully we'll still be together come Monday LOL! So what are you up to this weekend?

ReplyDeleteDo you buy the cans for your air to use with your copic system or do you have a compressor? I recently got a compressor and I LOVE it!
