The Thomas Kay Mill was one of the last water driven mills in Oregon. It is now a museum.<\/p>\n

Trying pen and watercolor in my journal. I worked from a reference photo I took last summer.<\/p>\n

I then traced the image onto tracing paper with a soft pencil and transferred it to my journal by rubbing the back of the tracing with the smooth round end of a pen. This transferred the pencil marks to the page.<\/p>\n

Next I used a Micron 02 pen to create a pen and ink sketch over the tracing and erased the pencil.<\/p>\n

About a week later I added watercolor. I looked at the original photo on my iPad as a reference while I painted.<\/p>\n

Moleskine watercolor journal, Micron 02 pen, Lucas tube paints – Alizarin Crimson, Cobalt Blue, Light Yellow, Sap Green, Burnt Sienna, Viridian, Paynes Grey.<\/p>\n
