Devon coast 2 and an art tip

I'm creating a drawing a day just, for the art of it, and sharing an art tip too.

Today's (or perhaps yesterday's as I didn't manage to draw) is boats on the Devon coast.

Today's tip: Some materials and what they are:
Water colours: pigment and sugar, very transparent, non permanent.
Acrylics​: plastic, sticks to lots of things, very permanent. Opaque, can be watered down to be transparent.
Conte crayons, clay and pigment, not as smudgy as chalk pastels.
Water soluble pencils, paint instead of leads.
Inktence pencils, ink instead of leads, spreads further, more inktence.
That's enough for one day.

Devon coast and tip from Dominic.

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it, and sharing an art tip too.

Today's drawing is the Devon coast.

Today's Tip is from Art Director Dominic Roberts.

Hi, been thinking about this for a while & here's my tip. I hope you haven't used it. This won't help everyone because some people just don't have this problem, but If you're a procrastinator like me the best advice I can give is just to start. Tell yourself you'll do 15 minutes drawing, painting or whatever. Once you've made a start, you'll soon get into it and when you look up from your art you'll see time has flown by and you've probably been working for an hour. So get your art materials out, put on some tunes & get stuck in.
