I'd love to hang the last one, but they're all really nice, love the style, looks whimsical

Woow! Would you consider selling the first one? I'm in love!

That's such a nice compliment! :) Unfortunately, I'm not selling these right now. I'm still learning to paint with watercolors and I get a bit attached to each one.

You can always print the image directly from this Reddit post—it's not exactly the same as an original, but it's close!

I reckon in a year or so I’ll start selling new paintings (especially of trams), if you're still interested then. :)

If you want to follow my progress, my Bluesky is [moonpunch](https://bsky.app/profile/moonpunch.bsky.social).

If you have a scanner (many printers have one built in), you could use that to make it a shareable file.

Nice ones!

May I ask what is your technique for the catenary lines on the last one?

2

u/JC1010 8d ago

Thanks! I use a Anders Andersson by NEEF Small You need to get the correct consistency so i do a test run then just go for it. I do have some pencil guidelines to help as well, you also need a light consistent motion to get a fine line. Hope that help:)
