New box of color pencils (Study: Christening)
Horrible colors
The last few days I’ve been mixing colors. Although the technique didn’t seem to be very difficult the resulting colors where horrible.
After consulting my drawing book I concluded that the problem might be that the colors I used weren’t pure enough.
