I know – the metallic red looks more pink than red, but I’ve discovered these black paper drawings are sooooo quick and I was in a hurry, so pinky metallic red tape it is!

wow! this looks awesome! so realistic! and who doesn’t love pink more than red anyway!
Thank you, Alice! I would love to see an actual metallic red. Most artist pigments are developed for the automobile and cosmetic industry, and then just adapted for oil, acrylic, ink and watercolor. I know that there are metallic bright red cars, so it seems like there should be some available.
Love this! And the fact that it looks pink is fine with me, since that’s my favorite color! Thanks for all you share here, I learn more every day with people like you that share their discoveries.
Thank you, Leslie! I’m so glad you find my posts helpful. It’s what keeps me posting!
Somehow looks to me like henna on hands – I’ve never had henna applied but love seeing it on others. One of those girly things though I’m not much of a girly girl.
Thank you, Sharon! I’ve never done the henna on hands either. The patterns are so beautiful though.
