Today I'm testing out a new set of paints, the Kuretake Gansai Tambi Graphite Colors. Because it's the first time I've used them and I want to get to know them, I'm starting with a simple design of circles using each color in turn, sometimes light and sometimes dark, but without any color mixing. Then I'm embellishing them with shapes and lines using either pen, gold, or a second layer of the same color.
This is a great exercise for practising brush control, water control and creating a balanced composition, without having to worry about color mixing, drawing, perspective or backgrounds. It is also a great way to try out new color combinations. And it's a perfect answer to the question "what shall I paint?"!
My materials for today were:

About my brushes
I buy my favorite brushes from Drawell. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
