Doing a detailed value sketch is a great way to start a the painting process. It is the time to can work out any design problems, simplify and study the value patterns. Here is one of the little paintings that I did from my recent trip to Italy. The value sketch and watercolor painting were done in my little moleskin watercolor journal:

Beautiful work! Watercolour is not a forgiving medium and you handle it beautifully.
