um ok sooo today I decided I would buy me some prismacolor colored pencils... my next drawing of the little girl and little boy will be made using mostly them. :D ( I bought a set of 48, the skin color I was using for the little girl i dont have one to match, will go back to art store and see if the individual prismacolors pencil have one I dont that matches, in meantime for the girls skin i want them to not be different lol) I also have to say ouch for my pocket book--- a set of 48 prismacolor pencils was.....drumroll here.............54.99 lol... :shock:
this 2nd drawing of the little boy and girl does have some watercolor pencils that I used, only since I had allready finished it before buying the prismacolors, it is without my newest colored pencils lol

Are you looking at a photo when you draw these or is it from imagination?

kinda both, I did research what a swingset might look like, but didn't really draw what I saw, just used it as an idea, for a basic structure...then went from there...so it is mostly from the top of my head. working on another with the boy and girl playing hide n go seek.
