Pentland Hills in winter, south of Balerno near Edinburgh. This was done on a watercolour Moleskine with three colours of ink (Black, blue and red) following a suggestion by sjguild October 16, 2008. Thanks sjguild for the idea of allowing ink to flood into a wet background, separating into different “base” colours. This seems to have worked for my clouds and I am grateful for the opportunity to try something new. Shame about the spine of the Moleskine being so prominent. It looks as if we Scots go about planting glass poles in the countryside.

Bob, the clouds worked very well. Now I’m going to try it. Thanks for sharing your technique. I was wondering about the glass pole.
Beautiful painting.

Thanks folks. I’m quite excited about working with something new. Remember to visit sjguild October 16, 2008 to see the beautiful effect.

A good winter sky with the hues under the clouds
