Another week, another plein air sketch! This week I chose a spot near my house to capture our home and the enormous Ash tree that towers beside it, experimenting with my new Inktense Blocks.
I selected three colours that I felt would complement the scene, and they proved to be perfect choices. Though I had planned to add line work with a fountain pen or coloured pencil, I accidentally left those behind. Despite this oversight, I'm pleased with how it turned out. The Inktense Blocks are a joy to work with – they lay down colour quickly and blend beautifully when activated with water. I have a feeling they'll become a permanent addition to my plein air sketching kit!
I hope you enjoy the video!
Happy sketching :)
Emma.
