In this lesson you will be guided through the creation of this girl with a butterfly on her shoulder. We will do a loose sketch initially and add more detail as we go. This piece is a simple mixture of collage, inktense blocks (see supply list for alternatives), watersoluble graphite, and some white soft pastel. You will learn all the techniques for collaging the background, sketching and colouring the face using watersoluble graphite and colour.

I have created these short mini lessons as one off projects. In them I invite you to follow along with me in a typical session in my day where I create a single artwork. I use varying techniques and materials.
