Stacy took us to Fine Art America for our challenge today - thanks, Stacy!
I chose this piece for the color combination: https://pin.it/1jul5bU.
I wanted to try something new to me - water color pencils and a water pen. What I discovered is: it is faster than alcohol markers and I like the finished product more than I thought I would. For comparison, here is the same 3D done on Neenah white, colored with alcohol ink back in January: https://pin.it/6QFBQLv. The alcohol inked card looks much softer in part because I swiped a white ink pad over it.

I love that this allowed you to add some shadow/depth to the crevices but, I do like the softness of the white washed one too. YAY for finding new things you like. This is so pretty.

Yes, I love both of them. They each have a different appeal, but both beautiful. I am a bit biased in that I love watercolour - it gives us a different take on things. Great job on this Priscilla.
