Another Line and wash as I continue to experiment with Arches Cold Press Paper.

It was done from imagination/memory without a reference photo. I simply went outside and looked at the birch trees on our property.

MATERIALS

I'm using a rather worn out Pigma Micron 005 nib pen.
It creates nice scratchy, sketchy lines.

PAPER. Arches Cold Press 1401b. I normally use Hot Press paper so this is somewhat of a learning experience for me as well.

MY PALETTE: All tube paints!
Winsor newton Yellow Ochre, Sepia, Burnt Sienna, Winsor Red, Davy's Gray, Ultramarine, Sap Green.
DaVinci Phthalo Blue, Quinachridone Fuchsia, Cadmium Yellow Lemon, Cadmium Yellow Deep.

BRUSH:
A Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush
is my current favorite.
The bristle were originally white
but have become stained.
I often use inexpensive brushes
because several of my techniques are quite abusive.
Whenever the brush disappears from the screen,
it is either being wiped off or rinsed.
