8 of 30 in June

This
page was started by writing with a fountain pen loaded with red ink on a
page in a 6×8 inch Stillman & Birn Epsilon sketchbook. After
writing I put a red watercolor wash on the page. After that dried I
layered a magenta wash over the top of the red.  I forgot to take a pic
of the writing. I got excited by the creation process.

I used caran d’ache watersoluble crayons to color a die-cut sheep.I used watercolors to color a brain bright orangey red.
I used an UHU gluestick to adhere them to the page. (forgot to take a pick of just the sheep and brain not glued to the page.)

After
that I realized that the brain melted into the background. I really
wanted it to pop, so I grabbed my white china marker and added circles
all around the brain.
