Christmas countdown: Number Eight

Festive themed Drawings incorporating the shapes of numbers 10 to 1

Today’s post is about using masking tape to block off an area to create a shape to work in. I used the shape of the number 8 to draw a tree form after I blocked off a triangle shape using a masking tape that is formulated not to damage the paper.

In the demo I also use a recyclable sponge from Composty. Check out their clever range of cleaning cloths and sponges here.

I used a Neocolor II crayon in the Kaput Mortum colour on a previously painted and dried pink watercolour background.

Have a look at the quick demo below, and you can also see the Pebbles and Petals post from June where I experimented with this water soluble material.
