    I've just had fun playing with this one.

    First layer was simple watercolour

    Second Layer I used Pencil drawing B & W, then overlaid using a light touch of the Seurat brush.

    I like this very much, great texture and strong though subtle colours.

    an interesting use of a limited palette yet strong saturation, it works well on this image as does your technique Dianne.

    Life is very nice, but it has no shape. The object of art is actually to give it some, and to do it by every artifice possible - truer than the truth. - Jean Anouilh 1910-87
