He was so still that his silhouette was pefect against the white of the snow.
I used watercolour crayons,Mr.R bought me a wonderful Faber-Castel set before we came over to the UK...sketch in pencil crayon and then finish with water...
I adore this little watercolour pad I have...Strathmore watercolour Postcards...paint your own postcards and send them to those special people in your Life...
Talking about special people...thanks to you all for your Holiday wishes and sweet comments...we're counting down the sleeps...and will be celebrating on Christmas Eve as this is a Scandinavian Tradition.
