  • I bought a secondhand reciprocating saw.  Unfortunately, whittling knives would cost more than the saw did.  Also, it’s almost the size of a chainsaw, and I suspect that I probably shouldn’t use it without a spotter.
  • That said: the plumwood is now in more convenient sizes, and the problem branch is off of the holly tree.
  • A friend of mine took up stand-up comedy.  (Yes, he’s good at it.  Everything was at his own expense.)

Since I have some free time on my hands and also the weather today was surprisingly encouraging, I went to do some outdoor watercolour sketching.  I wanted to practice painting trees, which I think are my weak point (when painting in watercolours) so I went to the Korakuen Japanese garden. This time, I first drew pencil lines then used my portable watercolours set. I added some details and lines using pastels back at home.

Technical stuff:

  • Medium: Cotman Watercolour paper B5 Medium 270g/m
  • Lines: 4B and B mitsu-bishi pencil
  • Colours: My Winsor&Newton, Schmincke 24 colours watercolour set and pastels

ちょっと時間が空いて天気も良かったので、外へスケッチしに行きました。透明水彩で木を描くのは僕的に一番難しいので、練習のために今日は小石川後楽園を選びました。今回はしっかりした鉛筆線画の上に水彩で着色をして、パステル鉛筆で細かいディティールをたしました。

ツール詳細

  • 紙: コットマンスケッチパッド 中目 270g/m B5サイズ
  • 線: B4とBの鉛筆
  • 色: 水彩とパステル
