F1 FERRARI F1; Formula One - The modern era of F1 Grand Prix began in 1950, But its beginnings stemmed from a great pre-war history. Colin used colour crayon pencils for the Ferrari drawing and the same technique for the Americas Cup drawing ( previous page) For these two drawings Colin used a 'tick' stroke technique , this is very time consuming but rather effective , especially for the sea as it does give to give Ocean scenes some 'body' and movement. The F1 Ferrari probably does not require any help to look like it is moving, But the technique has an appealing look , This 'tick' stroke technique often used for calendar and postcard art as an alternative to photographs. |
