This was a first attempt for me at a sketch and paint type project. I greatly enjoyed the project, but should have picked something simpler for my first attempt.

I used the micron pen suggested and definitely spent more time on the drawing than the painting. I used Arches, 9 x 12 inch and DS paint. I kept the paint fairly watery as suggested, especially on initial layers.  There are definitely some things I would do differently on a second trial, which is part of the learning process. I definitely feel I learned a lot. I am glad I tried this, it opened a door for a new type of art to enjoy.
