Home Breadth 9 - Textured Abstract

I haven't tried to do an abstract piece yet, so this idea popped into my head to use ripped pieces of masking tape to create a design. I allowed the tape to tear the way it wanted to, that way the result would be organic, jagged lines. I chose green as the color scheme because the organic nature of the torn tape made me think of leaves and other plants. 

I'd used Prismacolor on watercolor paper before, but not by itself. I really like the texture that's created when you put light pressure onto the paper while you're coloring due to the tooth of the paper. I think the result of this method of coloring produced an interesting result.

I enjoyed taking a break from drawing people, so I think I'd like to try more abstract pieces.
