Country Windmill - Watercolor and Ink

COUNTRY WINDMILL
Watercolor & Ink - 8x10
SOLD

I love to combine watercolor and ink. In high school art class when we drew with ink we used the pens where you could change out the different tips - depending on what kind of line you wanted to make - and then we dipped it in a bottle of India Ink - I promise we had electricity and drove cars but that was the way artists did pen and ink then. Today, we have wonderful pens like Micron and Sharpies and we don't need to mess with all of that but I still enjoy being able to make those fine lines for added detail in a watercolor painting.
