A trip to Turkey
I've been wanting to visit Turkey for a while, so I did just that during my summer break. I might need another visit to fully see Istambul, but at least I got the general idea. I was also delighted to find a pocket size Stillman & Birn gamma notebook perfect to carry around. Here we go, starting in Cappadoccia ...

Killecrankie (Scotland)
This summer holidays I've tried to teach myself (with limited success) to paint with watercolors, instead of just coloring my linework with them, so I'm posting my progress in chronological order -
These are all places I've been to, but these line-less watercolors were not done in place as usual; I used my photos as reference.
First, here is Killecrankie, at the scottish Highlands.
