Natural Conflict
This is a new piece that I created over the last week. I first cut a piece of Aquarelle Multimedia paper to 11"x14" - the same size as one of my journal pages. Then I began layering various colors and shapes using Prismacolor watercolor pencil. I allowed the paper to dry in between layers, and after the last layer of watercolor pencil, I began developing the image further with regular Prismacolor pencil. The image above shows the piece in process after all the watercolor pencil had been applied, and just as I began using colored pencil. The image below shows the completed piece. This piece is part of my excavation series, and I wanted to experiment with a new idea by combining the organic froms with the geometric.

This is lovely!
I love the softness of your colors and the preciseness if your lines. For me, the watercolors could be the organic flow of life and the pencil lines would be how I control what I see of this life with my human eyes/perspective. It really is a lovely work. Thanks for sharing
