Inspired by the painted paper elephant I wrote about in my Why Create Art? post last week I decided I would do some mark making using crayons and coloured pencils so that I can start to get some new textures and colours into my work. I’m really excited about how these random patterns and colours will find their way into my illustrations, looking forward to creating my next picture and working a bit of mark making into the process.
