It's been a while and all I have to show is some sketchbook experimentation/exploration. I was intrigued by some of my test strips where I color test watercolors. Then, while waiting for other watercolors to dry, I casually outline those color blobs with ink. Here are a couple, for example.
I like the look of them and wondered what would happen if I tried this deliberately. So I sketched a scene with lots of bits and colors and went in with grey ink outlines when the paint dried. Nothing special.... just playing.
Honestly, I think this looks better with fewer details and larger surfaces of color. I don't know that I'll do this technique again, but I had to try it once!
