I don't like to waste paint, so before I rinse my brush off between colors, I dab it onto a page in a little notebook. After the page is filled with color I draw over it. I got the notebook at the swap meet. The pages were actually a bit too thin so I glued three pages together. I saw a commercial while watching the Olympics where people struggle to do what they can't . . . until they finally can. So inspiring.
These are called Paint Over Pens. I use them a lot on these pages because they really do "paint over". You can get them on Amazon for $10.75. Jane recently came out with a new color line, and I really want them, but they're hard to get right now.
Me too, I get pake blood, I don't like to waste things especially if it can be recycled or put to good use. Things are expensive, have get bang for the buck....lol.

Cool! Are those pens watercolor? What did you use to outline in black?
Nice! I love the colors!

Yay, Jalna!
so resourceful!
love love the mermaids..I hope Kylie sees them ;-}
Aunty, they're not watercolor, but not sure what they're made of. I used my fountain pen with carbon ink to outline . . . it's my fave.
Thanks Izsmom!
I agree, Chet!!
LOL, Kay.
Thanks Kat.
Dd, I always think of her when I draw mermaids . . . and I think of you when I do unicorns.
I don't like waste either! I see Lucille Ball ; )
i think you should draw more cows so you'll think of me! :D
That's a great idea, looks like you planned it from the beginning.
