** 1 prismacolor: 3 hr 3min piece- on lined composition paper – freehand (vertical blurred line through left is the spine of composition book). I wanted to color something, despite not having a finished pencilled piece on Bristol ready quite yet. Used color pencils only ( no graphite pencil to sketch outline – thus no unwanted muddy gray smears) to draw it; a costume idea I had, that morning. Wanted to see how long it actually took** to fully color a piece, and ink outline it ( fountain pen, Lamy writing ink).
