About the Item

Golden brown - 24-08-20 New paper experiment The other day I bought new paper by Talens (Toned Colour Mix): a sturdy dark blue sheet perfect for colored pencil and pastel sticks. I also happened to find an old pastel stick (gold, Cretacolor 48254) that I did not use yet. In fact working with that stick almost feel like using colored pencil rather than pastel. Golden Brown Then I thought of my regular model of indian descendance that always reminds me to 'Golden Brown' by The Strangers. She has this incredible range of skin hues: from pinkish brown rose to yellow browns. The aim was simple but effective this evening: do a colored pencil / pastel drawing under 2 hours and test the paper and the pastel. I must say I am quite content. Slightly Cubistic I kept the body slightly cubistic and a lot of paper open so the positive form of the body could communicate with dark blue plains surrounding it. As often I used two light source: one articial at the left and daylight that I tempered by closing the curtains. This way I created a combination of yellow and blue light that effected the skin tones and hues the way I liked it.

Golden - 29-01-21, Drawing, Pastels on Paper
By Corne Akkers
Located in Yardley, PA
Golden - 29-01-21 Addition to the Series After my previous pastel drawing I decided to do a totally different one. Not in hatched strokes but smoothed out I had in mind. My graphite pencil drawing 'Roundism - 31-03-20 (sold)'served as the motif. I was to execute it in bigger format anyway and thought that it could be an addition to the Golden Series. Yellow Since the start of my quest in pastel I did not work on yellow paper very often. For some reason yellow is very hard to work with, certainly because it is so dominant. I once read that Carel Willink...
