Description When I bought my new high quality watercolours I also bought some postcard   sized watercolour paper.
I love that song!    
I am having a lot of fun with my watercolour set and I'm very sorry guys but I think I am spamming your inboxes with my silly drawings!

This painting was born wholly and absolutely after watching this awesome and inspiring video: youtu.be/0_eb5pvj76U
Enjoy!

I used:
Van Gogh 200g watercolour paper.
Rembrandt 12 watercolour set.
Derwent white ink pen.

Very poetic painting. The mountains in greys, drawn with mainly straight lines. The sky in color and with much softer lines. I like it a lot

I think this little painting is cool.  You should never think you are bugging us with your art pieces!

I don't know if you know about Tommy .  He's a badass landscape photographer who specializes in night photography and the northern lights.  Check out this image, Arctic lights  and get lost in his awesome gallery.

Yes
By the way, she has a video review of Winsor & Newton 12 watercolor set where she explains how to mix colours up.
