Temple in Kyoto, Japan


7"x9", Water color pencil on Canson paper

This is a painting of an old temple in Kyoto, Japan.  This goes as a submission to Virtual Paintout Challenge for April. Done in water color pencil, an entirely new medium for me, it was quite a challenge to get the blending right. Though not entirely satisfied, I thought it came out ok for my first attempt. I realised, acrylics are so much more forgiving when it comes to undoing mistakes.
