This was a sketch for a watercolor that I ended up liking better than the painting itself, although I'll post that when it's finished too. I think I went a little overboard with the mark-making but this new brush pen looks really good on a paper with some tooth to it, which is kind of a shame since I decided that the images that may end up being for a calendar are all going to be on the same paper as "The Graveyard" which is a bit smoother...
Here's the watercolor for comparison, my first watercolor ever. I did it on a primed canvas board that I found in Seagrave Studios, left over from someone who had moved out. Obviously I have no idea what I'm doing with watercolor, and I think the primer made it end up more like an acrylic painting anyway.
