EDM 96 Something Sweet

On Christmas morning after the kids had opened their gifts from Santa, I sat on the floor with them while they played with new toys and I sketched a candy dish my step-mother had gotten.

This drawing was done in (dry) watercolor pencil on a moleskine page that had been prepped with acrylic paint. Having seen how much wetting really makes the colors pop when I did last week's Illustration Friday challenge, I almost want to try it here as well. I am too nervous with the acrylic underneath though, knowing that is water-soluble as well.
