Description
Β©2008 Sarah B. Seiter - - Do not use without permission - Colored PencilThis was an experiment in using a limited number of colors in an image. I think I only used 8 or 9 different pencils total on black paper.
I am working on a couple more to go along with this set

Man that's just gorgeous! I actually LOVE the limited color scheme here.. I used to scuba dive and the lower you go the fewer colors you can actually see.. somehow this makes me think of that lol

She is supposed to be reminiscent of a sea anemone

Great job. This makes me want to play around with that technique again.

gorgeous work - she does seem like glowing and how incredible the whites look - so soft and natural

The whites are actually a really pale skin color and cream

I love the contrast of the fish, it almost pushes the mer creature to the background which makes Her much more startling and mysterious. I like it :'D

That's what I was going for

Well you definitely got it then, you're welcome :'D <3

She's a pretty one, Sara.
I'm not sure about the fish. The contrast in color seems jarring.

She is actually done on different layers to create a 3D effect. You can't really tell in the scan since I just scanned her flat. If you look close enough you can see that the fish are each an a different layer as are her arm and several tendrils of her hair. She is an experiment

Experiments are good.
Looking forward to seeing the 3D view.
