Really lovely,looks a bit vintage :)

Is it difficult to use watercolor pencils by the way? I've been thinking about giving it a go but I'm worried that I might be rubbish at it and a pencil set is rather expensive in Norway...

Hi, thanks for the comments. Sorry, it's carbon pencil i've used, not watercolour pencils. They're drawn first in (black)carbon pencil, darkened with charcoal, then washed with gesso and painted with watercolour. i've used watercolour pencils previously, but i was more fascinated with the effects of pastel pencil over the top of painted watercolour and then a turpentine wash. That may be worth experimenting with.
