aratherreclusiverabbit asked: Hi, Isobel. Firstly, I feel the need to tell you your pieces are perpetually stunning, as are you. Secondly, I have an art query. I want to produce a watercolour illustration, but preserve the black outlines of my pen. Is that possible, or must I purchase ink? Basically, how can I do that? Sorry for this probably ridiculous query of a self-thought artist :)

Thanks so much, you’re sweet :)
I hope I understood your question correctly. I used to lightly pencil in a sketch, paint over it with watercolor then outline it as well; I’d suggest to apply the pen after your painting has dried entirely as most inks tend to bleed. Although, I think there are some waterproof inks which you could probably check out at art stores.
Honestly, I’m just speaking from my limited experience, and there’s no harm trial-and-testing on your own :) Let me know how your endeavor goes. Good luck!
