Voted earlier when comments were off. Now, I must add I love this one, the clouds, the forest, everything…

Looks like a fun place to be Rob. Whats your favorite thing to sketch?

This looks like the archetypal Switzerland. Now, where did I put that cuckoo clock? Great painting Rob.

Hi Rob.Is this watercolour on a watercolour moleskine?
Is this your usual method? I was looking through a few older posts of yours and wondered if some were done with marker type pens. Love your style and the effect it gives.

thanks much guys! Nick, I pretty much use the same technique as always– just Micron pens (or India Ink if I’m in the mood) and basic watercolor wash after. I have to use several washes of different colors at times. The sky was just clear water- then dropped a blob of blues on top and moved the book around as needed to spread out the color– just playing around, trying to figure it out!
