Two Swallows

I love Winsor & Newton's french ultramarine blue. It's warm blue and shines on paper. I usually use Holbein's ultramarine blue deep and light, which are of good quality with reasonable price. Other colors used are cobalt blue, raw sienna, burnt sienna, quinacridone red and perylene maroon.

I guess it is my faster, rough painting that is actually the way of painting I like, on a postcard sized Sounders Waterford paper. After all, I like this paper.
I used Raphael's kaerell synthetic brush #8204 for the first time and had a good feeling with it; soft hairs for synthetic but durable so I don't have to care too much about brush being damaged.

ゴシキヒワ。ラフにハガキサイズのウォーターフォード紙に描いてみた。新しいナイロン筆のファファエル#8204の試し描きでもある。柔らかい合成毛の筆を探していて初めてラファエルを使ってみた。１枚描いたところではわりと好感触である。
