Mixing brown the other way round.
In mixing some colors there is a difference which color is on top and which color is below. At least that was the case with the pencil box that I used when I started drawing at the beginning of this year.
I’m not completely sure whether it’s also true for this pencil box.
Any way. I was thinking about the drawing I want to do next. With a tree in the foreground and clouds in the background.
I thought that it would be nice if you could see the branches.
I was thinking about what the best way is to draw something like this.
The last few trees I started out with blue for the trunk and blue for the leafs. But if I would add blue clouds it would get very complicated. Almost impossible to see where the tree ended and the clouds began.
It would be much easier if I started with the trunk and branches in orange. The draw the clouds and then draw the outline of the leafs with yellow. (Which will turn green if I do it in this order.)
The only problem with that idea is that I’m not sure what color I will get if I mix orange, blue and yellow in that order.
Tree 11
This drawing also solves an other problem I’ve been having. How to draw a tree in a way that the sky is still visible. Turns out to be very easy. Just follow the branches.
