Sketch of a windmill, with coloration added in Photoshop. The pencil work is a blend of pencils, a lot ebony and HB. An eraser was used for highlights and a blending stump for some of the contrasts. For once, I got one to show up nicely on the scanner.
the tone of the piece is really represented well with the rust tint. I really like the overall feeling emitted from it. the contrast between the clouds and the windmill/rest of the piece is also excellent. I'm having trouble putting my finger on exactly what I like so much about this...but either way, it's very very impressive. )

...The earth will rise to meet the air/
And heaven fires will kiss the seas/
That is my dream...
Otherwise the reflection looks crafted and the windmill subtley stands out .

The original piece was graphite, but it's nice to see what effects you can get from Photoshop with a little color tint. ^^
