Stages of Inktense

Here is my first experience with Derwents Inktense pencils and blocks.

Today I did the background using the blocks and some masking fluid. Then I did my base colour on the lizard with the pencils and gave it a wash over with water.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what the finished product looks like in the next few days.

Some say not to use coloured tape as it distracts from seeing the true colours of your work. This is all I had today, so blue it is!
