Moleskine challenge – Dry leaf *
Hello everybody! I am so sorry I haven’t replied to all your comments. Been busy developing a website in which I have a business interest in it. Will post about it soon. At the meantime, here’s a drawing that I did this evening. I had to switch off my computer for a while due to the thunderstorm, so I used the time to draw something. 50 pages left now to complete. 25 actually as I like to draw on 2-page spread.
I didn’t make it to the Animal Day at KL Tower. 😥
I promise to reply comments tomorrow and do my round of visiting! Promise to also clear off pending dollies and repair Ken’s blog.
Prismacolor color pencils on Moleskine
Color used: Yellow ochre, light umber and dark umber. A bit of graphite for leaf shadow.

* The first person to leave a comment on any post title that ends with a star will receive a link back to his or her blog for being my first commentator!
