How to Draw Over Kids Collage Art

Video Transcript

"Okay, so this is another item that I collaged and I did it last night and I am not quite finished with it but I did this so I would have something to draw on today. And also how I was talking about earlier, I collaged on to this paper. Well when I let this dry over night, I let it dry upright so this paper would be separate from the other ones, so it wouldn't glue to the pages at all. Okay, so what I am going to do is I am going to show you some drawing utensils. And I am going to draw into some of these designs because they are all dry. I collaged this about ten o'clock last night. It's very dry so the pen wont bleed and the color pencils will be fine and these gel rollers will be fine too. Okay, so let's see, pens okay. I have a couple different pens here. They are both gel rollers but I like the finer points better because I actually bought these at two different times. This one is a one point and a this one is a point seven. I like the point seven better because it's a finer point and it's just easier to work with when the pens are finer points. That's very important to me. Here is another style of pen. These are water proof and they are archival ink and they are acid free which is really great and I think architects might use these too, I am not really sure, but these come in different points too. Like this one is a point five millimeter and the point is kind of big and I might use this one to outline my collage, to go around the outside of the collage, just to kind of give it some definition. Then this one is the next size down, this one is a point two five and then this little guy I found and you can hardly see the point but there is a point in there. It's like, it's almost as small as a needle point basically because it's so so small. Okay, alright and also I use Prismacolor pencils because they are wax based and you can also layer them which is really nice. Okay so right here I am going to color in the hair, I am going to color in her hair. I guess why I do blonde hair is because I have blonde hair so I can relate to it. Let's see, she's got a it's almost like she's got a gold egg in her hand and it's almost like she is blowing it into the air, looks like a gold heart. So I am going to draw a heart in, draw gold in that guy. Oh I am sorry, I am using the point seven, the finer point gold pen which I really really like because it's easier to work with. It's not, it doesn't go on so thick and I am outlining a little bit of the clothing. This is a guy figure. I am outlining him, I am outlining him, yeah, okay, lets see. Alright so I have few, a couple of Prismacolors here, colored pencils. This is the older style Prismacolor where it is a fatter point and this one is a finer point and I like the finer points but you have to be careful when you press down on this because it will kind of dig into the paper. So you have to be lighter when you work with a finer point. And also and electric sharpner is awesome to use because it really sharpens really really well. Let me show you here. See this guy, it's kind of dull, lets see, there you go, just takes a couple of seconds. Okay, sorry, so what I am going to do is color in here, I am going to color in my figure with a colored pencil. She is kind of wearing a blue top and this little guy, I don't know, I think I will have him wearing purple, maybe like he is wearing a robe or something. It's kind of fun to add color. I like it. It really kind of jazzes up the picture. Maybe she will be wearing a little bit of purple too, they will be matching. "
