Description
This is a doodle I did to keep myself sane during this past week of school. In our drawing class, a classmate taught us how to marble paper. It is essentially dying the paper. I gave it a try and got this gorgeous watery-like effect (the bright and saturated blue). The rest of the piece was white (exception of a few small colors that got into the dye) and I decided to draw and use the dye to dictate what I would draw. I saw the water flowing as well as some effect that looked like feathers for wings so this is what came of it. I used blue ballpoint pen for the angel and purple gel pen for the background. It is a pity that the scan cannot show you how pretty the background is when it shines.Now it is time to run off and finish up finals. Later!

That marble technique is fantastic! After seeing this in person, I agree with you that the background doesn't show up as well. It's such a cool effect, and the shiny gel pen is just right for it. You should definitely try this sort of thing again! The water effect and wings are so cool looking.

I really enjoyed the marble technique and I totally would like to do more with it. If I get the kit, I'll have you come over and try it out with me. It'd make a fun doodlefest piece.
