Blind Contour Friday 6
This is supposed to be my stand mixer.
I decided to try color this time. I put some pencils in a cup and chose them at random while I was drawing. I found out it's kind of hard to keep track of where you are when you change colors like that.

well, for changing colors, you did a spectacular job keeping track of where you were. i really like the color factor. maybe i'll try it one day. when i start thinking my blind contours look more like the object drawn.

Oops. I thought I'd left a comment here earlier this morning. I love the simplicity of this and the ingenious use of color. Really nice.

NICE! i knew exactly what this was. the color idea is good too..but hard i bet. i like how you tried it while drawing rather than in post. People get so creative with this..yay!

Excellent experiment. I think it's wonderful and love how the colored lines float. Maybe next time when you change pencils, you could leave your finger where you left off. I don't see that as 'cheating' as you'd be staying with your contour and still not looking at the page.

what a challenging assignment you gave yourself, but you did it so nicely. The changing colors give it great energy.
