Beautiful pencil work Mia and a lovely fresh feel to it 😀

Well done for going straight in with no preliminary drawing. A bright, clear, fresh looking painting.

Nice one Mia. All the better for the no pre drawing which can sometimes take away that fresh spontaneous feel which you've achieved here!

Looks so good Mia, well done with no pencil first.

Your delicate touch is so good, Mia. I love your palette in this one - very fresh.

Beautiful, Mia. I agree, lovely fresh image :)

Love the reflections.

I never use any initial drawing Mia, great to plunge straight in with confidence. Nicely done anyway.

Gloriously fresh and crisp Mia.

Thank you for your positive comments, Rachel and Fiona. Much appreciated.

How lovely Mia! I would most definitely have to pencil in the drawing first but you are so clever with your pen work, I like the way you have coloured this too.

Lovely clean painting and a super drawing, Mia, AND with no prelim'. A very effective and eye-catching style. Bri

Well done for not using a pencil first the proportions look spot on to me Mia, a lovely fresh looking painting.

A pen and wash using an Artline marker, starting immediately in ink (no pencil drawing first). Not certain about the proportions. Size A4. All comments as usual very welcome :)
