Brandon – Give me some topices to cover and I’d be glad to help in any way.

hi brent – sketches i will do directly onto watercolor paper. but more complex drawings can be done on vellum or trace, scanned and then printed onto even very heavy wc paper using the (awesome!)epson 3800 printer – amazing – looks just like an original pencil drawing…

if you are doing watercolors by hand, what is the best way to get the architectural image onto a watercolor type paper?

Some answers to a some questions two pages back: I count L. Azeo Torre and William Kirby Lockard….hehe, and Reimon buyco….as inspirations. My weapon of choice for the draw?
