This is my entry for a contest held by . Thank you so much for holding a interesting contest, I think you guys should participate too, here is the link: https://steemit.com/sailor/@agneslaczo/art-contest-7-sailor-win-sbd-10-winners
The theme of this week is sailor! ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️
I love this theme, I had got an idea to draw a sailor man on his boat. He's looking through a telescope but he sees no island. Nothing but the sky meets the sea at the horizon.
Here is my drawing process
first, I made a pencil sketch about what was on my head. I drew an old man and a boat. This process took only 10 minutes<
after the sketching was finished, I traced the pencil sketch with a pen for a smoother lines and to make it more bold.
now is the time for colouring! I used watercolor. And started to shade the background first. I made some clouds in the sky.
I progressed painting all of the background objects. They are the sky, the sea and also a boat
now, only the sailorman that left unshaded. It has many details so I left it for the last. I chose gray color for the jacket and the telescope. So it has metallic properties, especially the shine.
