A new watercolor picture.

This started out as just a concept sketch in my Moleskine Art sketchbook. I wanted to try if I could draw a scene from a short story I’m working on. I liked the pencil rough enough to clean it up, test colors in Procreate, and color it with watercolors. I struggled a bit with the yellow Moleskine paper, which is not really well suited for watercolors. Still, I managed to get this looking OK enough in the end. Tools: - Moleskine Art sketchbook (the red, hardcover one) - Blackwing 602 - Schmincke watercolors.
