#DoodlewashJanuary2022 Prompt: Violet.
Did you know there is a chemical (ionine) in violets, that lessens your sense of smell temporarily? That’s why you can smell a violet’s scent for a moment and then it seems to go away.

#DoodlewashJanuary2022 Prompt: Violet. Did you know there is a chemical (ionine) in violets, that lessens your sense of smell temporarily? That\'s why you can smell a violet\'s scent for a moment and then it seems to go away. This painting was a real challenge. First, when I got to the prompt, I realized that there were no purples of any kind in the pens I was using. They don\'t blend too well unless you get them wet. These pens will let you do that, but the ink dried darker than I expected. Luckily, I had a Titanium White watercolor stick on hand and I used it to add a sort of filmy white, making my violets less of a blob, and adding some depth. The second problem happened because I startle easily, I was inking in the \'V\', when the phone rang and I went totally off track. That\'s why there is small violet sprout in my \'V\'. * Hahnemühle Nostalgie Sketchbook * Kuretake Real Clean Color Brush Pen * Kuretake Cambio Tambien Brush Pen * Kuretake Mangaka Flexible pen @Hahnemühle_USA @kuretakezig_usa #WorldWatercolorGroup #Doodlewash #LifeImitatesDoodles V is for Violet-Kuretake Mangaka Pens, Real Clean Color & Cambio Tambien paint brushes, Daniel Smith Titanium White Watercolor Stick in a Hahnemühle Nostalgie sketchbook

#DoodlewashJanuary2022 Prompt: Tortoise.
