Weekly Challenge #5 "Orbs" - my attempt

on
I think I'm still in time for Laura Harms' Weekly Challenge #5 the paper in my new Papaya Art Journal can take a good deal of saturation. This was done with Micron and Pitt brush pens. It looks a little better than it appears in the scan.

I knew I wouldn't be in time for Weekly Challenge #4, Starry Surprise, but I did a couple while I was traveling anyway.  I was a bit more successful there than with Orbs, but I think I learned more with Orbs.

    All three are wonderful, but my favorite is the first one! It is so beautiful with all the color and the way the orbs are shaded.

    i love the top one with all of the dark--so you painted that on?!?! What white pen are you using to come back over the black?
    Great tangling! Thanks for sharing!
