"Saying Goodbye" Watercolor Process

Happy New Year! It's time to get in gear after the holidays and post some things. Do you have any New Year's resolutions? Here are a few of mine:
-  Do more drawing and painting from life
- Work on a series of paintings (more info once I get going)
- Continue working on my personal project (blog post to come soon about this)

Anyways, on to this ink and watercolour painting. I painted it back in November and I did the ink drawing for Inktober.  My goal was to just have fun with it and experiment with colour.

Here's the ink drawing I started with.  I left the back trees pencil so they would stay faded.

Here's a sped up version of the painting process:


When it was done, I scanned it in and did a few tonal adjustments digitally.
