Black or White?


Thought I'd have a go at monochrome! The sketch is from Farm Fresh Friday, which I think lended itself to a photograph type theme! I wanted a classic, vintage type look. The mermaid is coloured using just grey copics. Hubby thought I'd just taken a black and white pic of it so hopefully it looks authentic lol


Thanks for looking
