Watercolour & pen painting

A watercolour and pen painting.  I haven't used pens with watercolor for a very long time, so discovered that most of my pens had dried up except one, which turned out to be water-soluble!  So I had fun trying to mop up the blurrs and runs into my watercolor!  But now I've got used to this pen, I might try more watercolor & pen paintings with it, as it's quite fun.

Watercolour of tulips in a vase

This was a watercolour and Inktense pencils of a bunch of tulips in a vase.  I often use  Inktense pencils with watercolour to give some texture to my watercolor paintings

"Goosey Loosey"

This is a PanPastel and some pastel pencil added for details.
Painted for the Wet Canvas Animal & Wildlife Forum March Challenge

This watercolor was painted for the PaintMyPhoto Website - Floral Group's Monthly Challenge "Eath Colors" - which it won.

It was one watercolor which went well right from the start - that doesn't happen for me very often.  My watercolors seem to have a mind of their own!
