The prompt 'Cacao' in the Sketch A Day app made me use one of the reference pictures provided by the app to draw the fruits of the cacao plant.
This particular reference was rather colourful with fruits varying from bright red to yellow so I picked three of the ones in the picture and arranged them to a new composition.
As before I made a layer of pencil, used water and added a second layer of pencil on the dried drawing to deepen the colours.
Now I have been using this technique regularly for a few months I can say that it is a great way to make a nice drawing.
The information about the materials I have used, the size and availability of this drawing and - if you are interested in my original artworks - my contact information can all be found in my Tumblr blog.
