I used a Grumbacher All Purpose paper. Used a folded pen and Ecoline Liquid watercolors (Deep Yellow, Vermilion & Light Green) for the swash and the word "Color". Used Chartpak marker to transfer my box of Crayola's.
My text was done with two sizes of Parallel Pen, a 2.4 with Moon Palace black ink & a 6.0 with Higgin's Eternal black ink. The nibs were allowed to get grungy so the ink didn't flow out as freely, giving it a dry brush look. I used a very free pointed style of Italic for the text and the word "Dreams" in Neuland.
Matted with a bright red mat
