Lovely detailing. Very good use of colour, excellent in my humble...

Great textures and colours Mike!

I'm so glad to see this Mike as I was wondering just this morning how you were getting on with the pencils. Great result, looking forward to seeing more pencil work.

Love this, Mike. Great use of colour, and I like your 'bunch of junk' potter... he adds a whimsical sense of history to the old building. Glad you couldn't resist him.

My thanks to everyone. Again the camera is intensifying the colour (taken with the Nikon) , it is exaggerating that orange brown , but at least the covering power s greater with these pencils than with my watercolour range, and the picture does stand under its own rights.

Great job with those pencils Mike

first try out of these pencils - my thanks to Richard for the recommendation. The subject was seen during "Open Studio" weekends and caught the eye. Obviously "home made" and well used. The "potter" caught the eye - a bunch of junk just as seen. Couldn't resist it.
