Looks great Martin- I love how you've caught the rushing water.

Drawing in the rain? That's real watercolour. You've still produced an excellent sketch. Well done Martin.

This is great. I can almost feel the lichen on the rocks and the rushing water.

Lots of running ink into raindrops but added more shading and watercolour to the image back home and I’m happy with the result. On A4 Canson 1577 pad
