I chose this adorable little teaset image, isn’t it cute! Sooo Disney! It reminds me of the ‘Beauty and the Beast’ film. I used this sketch over at Ribbon Carousel Challenge.
Using Y08, Y06 and Y02 I coloured the teapot and cup/saucer and then coloured in my flowers with RV63 and RV66. The hardest part of this to colour for me was trying to get the circular shape, I never quite know where to put the shading. I had a bit of a problem with my yellows actually because I had coloured them and when I went back to them I realised they had a patchy grey hue to parts of the image. I had a chat with gorgeous boss lady Suzanne and she reassured me that it was something that sometimes happens with yellows where the colour picks up the hue of the paper. You learn something new every day, don’t you! I will have to play around with my yellows a bit more I think. I don’t use them often but actually they are really lovely. My favourite colours are the golds, where you use the yellows too. What’s your favourite colour combo?
