Belinda, the telephone lines give this picture such depth! You made what is often an eyesore into a valuable part of your rendering. The result really puts the viewer right on the sidewalk, looking up at the church! Splendid!
belinda, its awesome! you make it look completely effortless! and your instructions are so good, i want to go out and try it!
I have newly found your blog and just love it! Your mini tutorials are brilliant. They are such an inspiration.
Thanks.
Oooooo! The monoprint all on its own is delicious! And then you pump it all the way to the next level withthe watercolour. Stunning. Thanks for sharing the process.

PS: There's an 'art recipes' group on Flickr, which LOVES this sort of thing. Maybe you could think of posting this series to that group?
Lovely! I never would have thought to leave the telephone wires in.
