The coloring on the skin was pretty simple since there is no wrong color, but I just used up previous washes of blue and green from my landscape palette to get a creepy pale color.
Happy Halloween!

Portrait of a zombie
Being inspired by my daughter's special effects make-up, Autumn Eliza SFX, I decided to do a portrait of one of her "zombies". This particular zombie is one she designed for a Halloween costume segment on Good Day Sacramento.

Pencil sketch - coastal fog
Here is a pencil sketch inspired by a watercolor demo by Howard Luke Lucas...the fog coming in on a coastal canyon. Interpreting his watercolor with pencil was an interesting experiment. As he is putting down washes, I'm quickly trying to cross hatch or smudge the same areas in pencil. My drawing is a mirror image since we saw the demo through an overhead mirror. I will try to recreate this later in watercolor too.
