Rooster on Colourfix



5½ x 7½ inches on Colourfix Pastel Paper with various brands of colored pencils. Still need to sign it and make a few adjustments. Click here for close-up and here for a close look at the rooster's head/face.

The Colourfix is great, especially the dark green, but I'm still learning to build up the lighter values, it's easy to lose the lightest lights and once that happens it can be difficult for me to erase and get them back again. I love using black and this rooster provided a great opportunity to use lots of it! I've discovered that the Pablo Caran d'Ache "Ivory Black" is fabulous for creating very deep blacks, especially on colourfix. You can tell by the feathers on the bottom of the neck I used Prisma's Black, but on the bottom and tail feathers I used Pablo's Ivory Black.
