Ferreiróz do Dão II

Print-and-Wash: I almost always like to preserve pen-and-ink sketches in their original form. I also feel the urge to add color. What to do? I scan and print the sketch onto smooth card stock or watercolor paper, and then add just a few simple watercolor washes.

Desenho aguarelado:  Quase sempre prefiro preservar desenhos a caneta na sua forma original. E quase sempre sinto a tentação de acrescentar cor. O que fazer? Imprimo uma cópia do desenho em papel de aguarela e adiciono umas poucas e simples passagens de aguarela.

Ainda bem que voltei a Portugal este Verão,  porque estavam-me a acabar as fotos da minha última visita.
