I worked on Fractured Glass 2 for about 15 days. I worked on Step 3, adding color, for about 10 days.
And more color...
And still more color... Slowly, and then all at once, the patterns become visible.

Fractured Glass 2: Step 2 - Winsor Newton Davy's Gray and Daniel Smith #3 Brush
This should look just the first step of Fractured Glass 2 because it is. I pick up a paintbrush after the pencil lines are in place, and set the design with Winsor Newton Davy's Gray, a very light gray watercolor.In the earliest nanoscapes, I used Winsor Newton Sepia, which has a darker character and is staining (a painter's word for either delightfully or annoyingly permanent) or Daniel Smith Sepia, which is unabashedly brown. I also experimented with Daniel Smith Payne's Gray, which was too dark for the nanoscapes' framework.
