Just to add - before it gets lost in the depths of the thread - I do like Bill's tree, and combination of materials used to create it.

Thanks Robert. I've actually worked on it since then. Here's the final tree - I gave it to the B&B owner as a gift, for several years of excellent hospitality. If anyone is thinking of holidaying in Dumfries I recommend The Hutton Lodge.

These pencils might have been specially made for you, they suit you and vice versa.

That’s a superb tree Bill and Alan yet flower is superb. A couple of  sketches from me one pencil the other is a watercolour sketch with pen. The paper is a4 very cheap at £7 for fifty sheets , I was quite rough with it and deliberately use lots of water , I was quite impressed as it only cockled slightly.

There's a lot of good work on this thread now. Alan, I like your flower studies, especially the first. They give a sense of real flowers not always found.  Paul, I'm enjoying your sketches too. Keep them coming.

Alan your flowers are beautifully done!  Like your figures too Paul and like Alan I particularly like the second Japanese inspired one. I have just got my pastel pencils out for an airing and here is the result
