Sleepy St. Bernard

5x8 ink and watercolor on paper done yesterday with no pencil drawing, only black Tombow pen to put in darks, and then washes of browns and tans.  I used only a black and white photo for this work and would have liked the Tombow to have spread a bit more.  It would have if slicker paper had been used.
