Jo - she will have a bright red hat but I wanted to tackle the skin first before getting to work on the hat/fan which took a lot of layers to get the rich colours. I need to get this worked out as I think the subject is perfect for the red frame I bought ..... and its a great opportunity to use some of the bright coloured pencils which I don't use when doing Sue Clinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582183867336673426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474048087216734753.post-53602659053825066922015-04-01T18:41:00.211+01:002015-04-01T18:41:00.211+01:00Hi Bev.

I ordered one which arrived damaged with only half the sheets useable and a replacement was sent ... it could be a variance in the quality between the two pads I guess ... but I can see there is a difference between back and front of paper so it may be as simple as I've used Sue Clinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582183867336673426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474048087216734753.post-5660640588344385822015-04-01T15:02:31.469+01:002015-04-01T15:02:31.469+01:00I did love the red hat though.

I have gone back to my favourite Fabrianno Artistico for cpBevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05441506881445533589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474048087216734753.post-19569733913512084162015-04-01T08:51:39.652+01:002015-04-01T08:51:39.652+01:00Thank you Jan .... not a great photo as taken in a...Thank you Jan .... not a great photo as taken in artificial light which is casting shadows but so, so good (fingers firmly crossed).
