Time for a new thread, it's been a while! None of these are exactly new, the pony art were all made for swaps earlier this spring/summer and their recipients have posted pics but I'm not sure if they tend to get lost in the Swap forum brag threads. So, here goes!

The drawing was made with watercolour and India ink on Sennelier calligraphy paper. Pandabear mentioned cherry blossoms, fireworks and Japan in some of her likes, and I tried to incorporate those themes. The idea of a summer festival featuring fireworks feels very odd to someone who has grown up in the north and is used to light summer nights! (And I live in southern Finland where the sun actually does set... even if rather late.
) Anyway, I googled some images for inspiration and had fun with the bookmark, I don't use colours this vibrant or dark often. Tools: Copic markers, Sakura Pigma Micron on marker paper, some details in gel pens and coloured pencils.

I hope you like them!
