Sow and Piglets

Ikea has a very nice collection of cloth farm animals. My son happens to be in possession of the complete set. Here are mommy pigs  and here three piglets.
I understood too late that the Stabilo 88 are not waterproof!

  1. Amazing work! I like how your ink bled and created a very cool ink wash mixed with watercolor. Beautiful effect. One of those happy accidents all traditional media artists talk about. My accidents usually involve software crashes and file overwrites.

    Great job, louisC!

  2. Thanks Dmitri. I am amazed what a couple of watercolor strokes can do to an ink drawing. But it's a double edged sword, I used the very same technique on a bull and on lamb and it looked horrible ;)

  3. Art seems to be made of hit-and-miss moments like this. This one was definitely a hit :)
