    Beautiful colors in the shadows. And nice composition too. The sketchcrawl was a lot of fun, I can’t wait for the next.

    This is a phenomenal watercolor. I’d love to know more about your process. Do you lay in with pen or pencil first? This is gorgeous.

    Thanks Bill. Glad you enjoyed the crawl!

    Anthony- there isn’t much to my method, I draw in pencil (a cheap mechanical pencil) and than watercolor it …
    I have camping sitting tripod that’s been really useful (quite light to carry around) and I can sit and portray the sorroundings from the spot I want.

    One thing I haven’t figure out how to do, is avoiding your legs and butt to fall asleep … after an hour or more of sitting cramped like that, it’s pretty painful to get up and stretch … :)

    Concordo con tutti quelli sopra, splendidi acquerelli, splendidi scorci!

    What a lovely sense of place, light and energy in this painting. Marvelous.

    I sympathize with your note about the butt and legs falling asleep. If the painting is going well I often sit a bit too long and then wow, I pay for it trying to bring life back into those legs.

    :)

    Beautiful little painting Enrico. How does one get in on Sketchcrawl? Okay, I won’t be lazy, I’ll start surfing.

    Elisa, Mike- thanks !

    Arna- ah yes … totally …

    Lisa- Thanks! It’s pretty easy, you just come to the forums and let us know where you’ll be drawing for the next crawl … then drawn and enjoy on that day … then share the sketches afterward … :)
    that’s about it
