To end the work week I started another design on a knife to feed my drawing on Chinese White skills.
As some of you might wonder why I quit using software, I don’t. As I want the design on the other side as well, I will use my scanner to make a picture at real size that I can manipulate to make a Damar bakery parchment transfer.
While drawing on the Chinese white, I also fine-tuned the use of it. So this time I started with one thin layer of Damar Varnish, that made it much easier to add the Chinese White layer with a soft paintbrush kids use. To make corrections while drawing I just used the paintbrush .
However, I will buy a good marten paintbrush for that use.
I didn’t draw complex leave structures as I think this is more than enough. The shading could add the extra complexity.
Although I didn’t push the critique button, critique is welcome.
