Julia – 11-09-18 The third drawing of Julia Gómez Avilés rendered with colour pencils. Last week I bought a great collection of Prismacolour pencils that brought me great joy using them. I used one of the reference pictures I took during the session with Julia last August and employed some styles like impressionism, cubism and realism and combine them. Due to my pointillistic lines that through the process of divisionism create merged colour impressions, I could not use brownish and greyish pigments. The result would otherwise appear to become mud. The result is also luministic I think. Colour pencil drawing (Pentel 0.5 mm, 3B) on Strathmore Drawing paper (21 x 29.7 x 0.1 cm - A4 format) Artist: Corné Akkers -
