Whizz finished

Well here he is - all done. I definitely liked this method and will use it again, although it doesn't really speed things up any, I like the look it produces.

    This is really beautiful Bev. Is it a gift or a commission?

    Beautiful work as ever! How do you compare the effect of dissolving wax cp to using wc pencils and water?

    Cheers

    Oh sorry folks, I forgot to thank you all for your lovely comments.
    Gail, he was a commission and the clients love it....thank goodness.
    Lesley, I think this method is more controllable because you don't need to wet it as much as Water solubles. Well, I find it easier but perhaps someone who is used to watercolours would find it frustrating.
