From summer to winter. Drawing with alcohol markers + process

in #art6 years ago

Hello, Steemit!

Do you know the Russian proverb "prepare the sleigh in the summer, and the cart in the winter"?)

If you delve into the essence of this proverb, it talks about the need to prepare in advance everything that will be needed in the future. It is quite simple and understandable people their wise thought into their usual economic life. Constantly engaged in farming, the peasants certainly cared about the serviceability of their winter carts before the winter, because for them it was the main mode of transportation.
Today the sledge as transport has sunk into oblivion. However there are a lot of winter types of entertainment thrive: skates, skis, snowboards and etc.
When we have free time in winter, my husband and I go out on snowboards on the local slopes. And it is very important to check your "arsenal" for serviceability. So it turns out - prepare a snowboard in the summer).
I decided to draw an unusual picture, where the snowboarder flies out of the hot and green summer in the cold of the Russian winter.
The picture consists of two parts. The mountain slope is one, but its left part is all in green and grass, and the right is covered with a snow-white cover.

I painted with alcohol markers in the sketchbook for graphics.





First of all, I drew the contours of the future drawing with a pencil.



I began to paint from the sky. The left summer part of my picture I painted over with a sky-blue marker, the left one - with a cold blue color. Also drew a cloud, making them rainbow and light on the left side and a little gloomy on the right. The edges of the clouds were "shaded" with a gel pen.



Then I painted the trees. In the left part of my picture the trees were made up of yellow and light green markers, in the right – with emerald marker, and I left also white spaces to show the snow.



I drew shadows on the trees umber, making them more voluminous.



On the left side of the picture I drew a grass and flowers. On the snow cover on the right side of the picture I drew shadow lines with gray and umber markers and marker of color "sunset".



I painted the figure of the snowboarder with orange, brown and black colors. With white gouache painted the flakes of snow in the air.



At the final stage, I emphasized details with black and gray liners. I strengthened the shadows in the picture with a gray marker and umbra. My drawing is ready.
