Beaver Block - the process

The first step using my favourite ink pen, purchased while I was in Murano, Italy in 2011. I plan to add some architectural details and then I will give it a day to dry completely before I add watercolour. I have tried to rush it before and ended up with ink bleeding into the colours.

the second step ... adding the architecture...

the third step ... adding watercolour...

added finishing touches and framed ready to hang...
