Winter Scene - Pen and Ink plus Color

This is a winter scene in pen and ink plus water soluble pencils used dry.  One of my favorites snow scenes I enjoyed painting in watercolor.

Moleskine Sketchbook

Pilot Prera with Lexington Gray Ink for the main ground work.
Micron 01 Brown and Black to add extra emphasis on some areas
Uniball White Bold gel pen to add some snow on branches
Inktense Pencils:  Mustard and Willow with a touch of Baked Earth
Derwent Watercolor Pencil:  Gray Blue for shadows, snow shading, and pushing trees back.





Final after adding a bit more blue for shadows and a few dark tree trunks in the background.
