Hi there, Sarah!

I actually really like that street scene as well. Was that done in watercolour and ink?

The podcast is brilliant, and like you, I was so taken with the delivery, content, and their personalities, that I had to hop over and join the forum.

I look forward to seeing your work!

Hi @animatosoor, thanks so much! Glad you like the street scene - yes, it was ink and watercolour.

I drew the outlines first in pencil, lightly on watercolour paper. Then went over and inked it with waterproof drawing ink using a small brush, then coloured it in with watercolours. I did a bunch of small drafts before doing the final piece, so that helped a lot in working out the colours and composition.

Nice to meet another podcast listener. Look forward to seeing your work too!

@SarahF Great to hear your process! Watercolours are quite something, and I wish to get back into them at some point. All the best on your journey, Sarah!
