I was hoping that would be your answer. It takes me a long time to paint less detail than that. If you said something like 15 hours I think I would have to give up hope of ever getting any faster. I try to go faster but my speed hasn't changed much. A lot of your paintings seem to have brown outlines around integral parts of the painting. Am I seeing that correctly and if so is it watercolor, pencil or pen and ink. I like the effect better than black pen and ink. Do you put the outline on last? I hope you don't mind my picking your brain. I thought I might try using the brown sometime.
