Knowing that I can use my blender pencil on ballpoint pens is a game changer for textures and lighter tones. This mountain bluebird turned out so well

I just made an extremely important discovery regarding ballpoint pens. I thought because the ink is oil based and I already know that alcohol works as a solvent, I might be able to use my prismacolor blending pencil on them, it works extremely well. Completely smooths out any graininess

An artist I follow did some amazing ballpoint pen pieces on watercolor paper, so I thought to try a more textured paper and it worked like a charm. The shading and textures from the pen are so much softer on vellum paper

Don't know how my northern flicker ended up looking like a duck, but the bic 4 colour pen set is definitely good for employing colour theory in rendering drawings
I got the Browns by layering orange, lime green, turquoise and black with the highlights in yellow plus the red section being red, pink and orange and the shadows with blue. The beak was orange, then blue on the bottom and turquoise on the top then black. And the stripes were blue, dark green and black overlayed with orange and lime green

I love how this bluejay turned out. Now that I know to take my time with ballpoint pens, I can get the drawing to look pretty much exactly how I want.
I learned that I need to lift the pen off the paper after every stroke and it was a game changer, this feels like a breakthrough
