Nicely drawn Tao, love the colours and the tones on the leaves

Lovely autumn shades Tao - you sure it was only 7 layers and not 8?

Thank you so much David for your lovely comments

well Adele it could well have been 8 or even 9 I just lost out, but I think the size is right (only because it says so on the pad!!!) I am so glad you like the colours, I just couldn't get that bronzy look, probably not enough colours in my boxes me thinks ????? thank you so much for your wonderful comments.

Sorry Adele I meant to type I just lost count computer just doesn't keep up and decides what it thinks I should have written. one day it will get the message that I am in charge not it

Beautifully drawn and I love the way you have a range of shades of lovely goldey-brown. Those little touches of green are very effective.

You always get a lovely light on your leaves Tao. The colours are rich and autumny. Beautiful.

I find, even with a variety of 120 coloured pencils in a box, you cannot colour-match everything, Tao.

Beautifully done Tao!

Lovely autumn shades in this Tao, I like Derwent smooth watercolour paper, its especially good for watercolour pencils.

Thank you so much Sandra for your lovely comments

Many thanks Carole for your lovely comments

with all the various makes of pencils in my drawer I find I get a different colour every time I layered depending on which colour I start with, but as you say Adele you can't match them all thank you again

many thanks Sylvia for your kind remarks

thank you so much Linda for your kind comments this is the first time I have use this paper, but you are right it is great to use.

These are so lovely Tao, I bet your arm was aching after doing seven layers!

Thank you so much Margaret for your lovely comments yes the wrist does ache a little, but I am going to stop painting and do a jigsaw which I am a fanatic puzzler LOL
