Autumn stroll by Stephen Slater

Another lovely sketch Stephen,

And you're doing really well on the tones, Stephen. Very nicely done indeed.

Nice sketch Stephen, soluble graphite pencils can be fun to work with and great freedom to play about with and change the tones, like this one, it works well .

I think I may have to get myself one of these pencil's Stephen, you produce some lovely effects with yours. Very useful if all you can take out is a sketch book and pencil....all you need.

Many thanks every one for your encouraging comments. Fiona, they are nice to use on holiday or on a walk, I find a water brush is good with them to add a wash effect and can be used to dip into watercolour pans to add a splash of colour.
