Ha! Found the pencil sharpener. In a place that it didnt belong, of course.
This is Sumi ink background and then Caran D'Ache Watercolor pencils. It must be the ink, but the pencils have a sort of pastel layering quality that I didnt expect. Certainly a different "feel" than the pencils on the watercolor paper.
And I love the look on the black background.
Food looks terrific on black plates. Peas are greener, meat is meatier.Im always on the look-out for a set of square, black, dinner plates. But they have to have well defined corners. So far, no luck.
