How to draw Snowflake Obsidian Doodlegem Tutorial ep 43

Here we go! Snowflake Obsidian Doodlegem is the stone of the day!

This stone was a request by a lovely community member on my previous video for the January Garnet Birthstone.



I LOVE our community of creative people we have here on Youtube, and especially the folks that come and hang out with me in the comments after watching my videos. :) This viewer had said that she loves snowflake obsidian and would like to learn how to draw it up. I fell in love with this stone. It is really easy to do and gives you a lot of bang for your time. It comes together quickly with very few pencils needed.

Here's the list of materials I used:

Neenah 110lb cardstock Solar White - You can use any paper that you have available!

White Gel Ink Pen-- I used the Uniball Signo UM-153

Black Fine Line Pen- I used the Pigma Micron Black 02

Prismacolor Colored Pencils:

Black, White, 10% Cool Grey, 70% Warm Grey, Cloud Blue, Indigo Blue and a Colorless Blender.

If doing this is any other pencils You will still really want to have a Prismacolor White and Colorless Blender. And then you just need to add Black, light Grey, Medium Grey, Pale Blue, and Dark Blue.

How to Draw and Color a Juicy Citrus: Lime

It's time for the January #Coloroftheyear Art Crawl!

This video brings you a Juicy drawing of a lime slice and wedge ready to adorn a Summertime greeting card or barbeque Invitation. You could also put in a simple frame as a lovely piece of Kitchen art!  

I show you how to do this lovely project every step of the way in realtime. We will use lovely colors of greens and yellows to create this juicy fruit!

Materials Used in this show:

I share the tools and materials that I Used. You can certainly use any kind of colored pencils- you want a Yellow Green, Medium Green, Olive/Moss Green, Bright Green and possibly a White to use as a blender 

Prismacolor Color Pencils:

Colorless Blender, Kelly Green, Chartreuse, Yellow Chartreuse, Apple Green and Moss green

Qor Watercolor Paints (any water color)

Cadmium Yellow Primrose, and Phthalo Blue

Graphite pencil (I used a Stadler Techno Mechanical Pencil)

Kneaded Eraser

The Reference Photo was found on Http://pixabay.com 

Link to the Playlist: https://goo.gl/eOlrVC

This year the color is Greenery. Greenery is symbolic of new beginnings. It is a fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that make you think of the first days of spring when nature’s greens return after a long colorless winter. Greenery signals people to take a deep breath. Greenery is an omnipresent hue around the world.

A life-affirming shade, Greenery is also emblematic of the pursuit of personal passions and vitality.

How to Draw Doodle Gems Episode 8: Rose Quartz

Welcome to Episode 8 of my How to draw Doodle Gems Series. This time is a sweet little Rose Quartz Heart. The Gem is first up on the video in real time and at 17.46 mins the doodle lace frame for the heart is done in real time too!



Doodling and coloring are 2 things that are great for calming down and reconnecting with yourself for a little while. Take some time to relax and make something beautiful!



This project was done with Crayola Color Pencils. (Mauve, Cerulean Blue, Magenta, Pale Rose, Bubblegum Pink, Salmon Pink, Rose Pink and White) I have the 50 pack that I picked up on Amazon for less than $20 (in March of 2016). The doodle frame is drawn with a Sakura Pigma Micron Pen and the highlights are done with the Signo Uniball White Gel pen.
