Mia, you know what to put in and - importantly - what to leave out in order to make a great picture.

A few years ago, we had a lovely holiday in the Champagne Region near this little village of Hautvillers. In the church is the tomb of Dom Pérignon, who improved the "méthode champenoise", the way of making sparking wine. A pen and wash, my favourite technique, size 30x40cm. All comments are very welcome :) Mia
