...continuing exploration into working with inks.
Paper: 250gsm Bristol Board, A4 size
Medium: Staedtler pigment liners, .05, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0. Various water colours, quite old tubes of colour I have (some over 40years old!!!). These include Cotam, Winsor Newton, and Art Spectrum.
Step One: Black ink drawing state
Step Two: Initial water colour washes using primarily a 'Paynes Grey' mix of Ultramarine, Yellow Ochre and Vermillion. Touches of yellow ochre and greens created with mixes of these colours.
Step Three: final. More layers of greys, colours, with 'spatter' technque in the sand. Additional line work to enhance the depth in the stones

Re: Further ink work
I love how it comes alive as you add colour. And the inventive colours you've used that just seem to be so "right".
It almost tempts me to start using colour myself.... almost.

no Mike, don't mess with perfection! Your work has all the colour it needs, without adding 'colour'.
