| Pink Lilies in Inktense by Jan Salmon |
We
welcomed the beginning of February with a Derwent Inktense presentation and demonstration
by OSBA member Jan Salmon. For
many participants, it was an introduction to this relatively new, vibrant
media. Jan began the
presentation by discussing the properties of Inktense, basic techniques and
versatility of use. Inktense
can easily be used in conjunction with other water-based products as well as
regular coloured pencils. As
part of the demo, we were given the opportunity to try our hand at painting
colourful leaves. Many
members commented that these pencils would make a great addition to their
portable art kit for nature journaling and travelling. On display were some of Jan’s
beautiful paintings which demonstrated how effectively Inktense can achieve
vibrant colours for botanical subjects. Thank
you Jan!
