Butterfly In Full Color

Here is the Butterfly in Full Color!  I used my beloved Prismacolor pencils along with Prismacolor Verithins to add color to the original pen and ink.

I blended the colors using a clear Prismacolor blender pencil.  Then I used a fine point Sharpie to darken and sharpen the outline of the butterfly.  I find if I used Microns after the colored pencils, the bees wax tends to clog the tips.  If the Sharpie gets clogged, I roll the tip from side to side until the ink comes back through.

Thanks for taking time to walk with me through the process of creating one of my pieces from start to finish!  Have a GREAT day!
