Thanks for watching.
@myARTjournal just out of shot is my palette that I hold with my other hand where I do most of the mixing. Sometimes I like to have 2 or 3 different colours on the brush at once so yes, sometimes the mixing is done on the paper. Thanks for watching.

do you do all your mixing on the paper?

@henrycems to be honest I wasn't that happy with the sky. But I like how the wall turned out. It's a very simple technique with the card but can be quite effective.

This turned out good to me. I like the detail with the stone wall and the path. And always I like the sky in this one too. It could be an early evening sky. Thanks for posting.
