Sketching a few interiors today and thought I would do a comparison between watercolour and markers. Both were done in a similar time frame - ie. a rapid rate. I scanned the base line drawing of the watercolour and then printed it out for the marker version (on bond paper)
I use my copic markers in the same manner I use my brush - very similar gesture and movements...but instead of mixing different colours I am madly scrambling to find the new colour, put on the lid of the colour just used and then open the right end of the the new colour (I am using the wedge end on this sketch)
I can't see the sketches from the last couple of posts. Am I the only one with this problem?

I cant see any sketches either
DeleteRe Watercolour v. Marker - both sketches are lovely but I prefer the top one as the Marker seems to produce a rather square abruptness with its strokes plus the back of the sofa in grey looks like hard work. Watercolour is softer and better at filling spaces I feel. All said I think in the end it is down to what the artist prefers to use. Interesting test.
ReplyDeleteBe it watercolour or marker, pick either one and check out Grasshopper, IFC and RhinoPython for top notch sketching on www.rhino4you.com - interoperability rulezzzzz !!!
