I'm still pursing my theme of highlights and accent colours and this week it's a study of an old grey flagstone that was covered in the most magnificent orange lichens. I found it whilst I was on holiday a couple of weeks ago and I was mesmerised by how the bold colours of the organic material transformed the austere tones of the rock.
I've done a quick sketch using simple biro cross-hatching and then added the accent colours with pigment ink pens. The lichen covers a relatively small proportion of the rock but the orange really lifts the various shades of grey.
