Coloring my children's picture book, page one

80/365

After panicking yesterday when I opened Sketchbook and realized that I’d forgotten how to use it, I calmed down and tried it again today. It took 2 hours to get the hang of the interface with it’s color puck and brush puck. By the time my allotted time expired, I felt that everything is going to work out fine.

The first picture in the book was originally painted with watercolor. I re-inked it fairly quickly and then began to color it. Sketchbook has a complete Copic color palette, which I will use. I didn’t get very far, but there is color on the page! I have a gut feeling that I’m heading in the right direction.
