How I drew - The lady of winter ACEO

1. First I sketch up the idea. When I’m happy with it I will transfer the lines on an aquarelle paper. Fill the base outline with an ink pen. Then mask out the areas I want to keep white with masking fluid.

2. I paint a base layer of ink with a brush.

3. Then I use graphite pencils and ink pen and begin to draw!

4. When I feel happy with the background I remove the masking. And continue to draw in the details with graphite pencils and ink pen.

5. Then I paint with red ink.

6. Last but not least I paint all the white details with white ink.
