On a walk by our local stream, it was the contrast of the rich warm colours of the willows against the clear cold blue of the sky and the pattern of the cast shadows that made this such an interesting subject. But as the dry pencils did not provide the right effect, they all had to be made into washes and, with the exception of the sky, be painted on with fine brushes.
