A place where old treasures are unearthed, new interests discovered, and who knows what else might pop up in the mix

To Live, To Love, To Let Go
This doesn't really depict any particular scene in the series, rather I was trying to capture my emotions that I felt as I drew this in line while waiting for the last Harry Potter movie.
Pen and Ink with Watercolor
This also was the first painting that I completed using the Windsor-Newton Series 7 sable watercolor brush that I received as a gift after graduation. For those that don't know, in 1886 Queen Victoria, an avid watercolorist herself, ordered that Windsor-Newton produce a line of the highest quality brushes in size 7 - her favorite size. This line became known as Series 7 and since then has been continued with the same quality standards. It's absolutely amazing the difference that sort of quality makes with how it feels to paint with it. Hence, I wasn't as thrilled by the actual technique in this one, since I was getting used to a different flow compared to the acrylic watercolor bristles I was using.
