Here are some in between pictures that I took so show you guys my process. I only took a couple of photos, but basically this is what I did:
1)I sketched the drawing first
2) I traced and transferred the image to watercolor paper
3) I inked with waterproof Micron pens
4) I water colored the image.
You will notice that I did ink a TON of vines,but the water coloring process obscured a lot of them- which was great because it allowed me to add some depth with the larger detailed vines up front and then smaller less detailed vines the farther up the mountain. Hope this helped!

So beautiful...moody and mysterious.
Beautiful!
This is absolutely beautiful. The composition is perfect.
I don't see the mole, but this is a beautiful illustration! I love the darkness, and texture of it.
very cool. love the background, it is beautiful...and the mole is cute with his little suspenders and glasses.
Lovely. I love the line work of the thorny vines. I am a beginning hobbiest illustrator and I wonder about your technique- do you like to fully ink your drawing before painting? It was fun to see the sketch for this piece, and I would love to see even more in-between photos.
The tethered owl just makes it for me. Nice composition and "feel" to it. Like Claire said, "...moody and mysterious." :)
You are so talented and your illustrations are kind...
Very cool, glad you included the pencil drawing, those lines are great.
Thank you Jessixa! I think this is my favorite piece on your blog.
