work in progress

I am having a very arty long weekend. This is one of the pictures I have been working on.

Its all drawn up, tomorrow I will start adding colour.

 

 

                          And hear is an older piece from last year that I just added to the gallery. 

Its done with watercolour and ink on canvas paper. I used a metal ink quill and it made wonderful soft scratching noises while I was drawing and felt very old worldly. I'm quite fond of some of the effects in this one.

trees like company.

Another little water colour completed. I had this one siting around half finished for ages not knowing what it needed the pine tree wasn't working and it was to somehow laking. Then i decided to put the background trees in and the pine tree obviously glad of the company worked itself out just like that.
