Latest on this painting!

I finished the plants and fence using the Straight Tool to make the lines of the fence uniformed.
The painted most of the picture using the TaperedCamel and Captured Bristled brushes, both which I like a lot.
On the plants and dirt I also used Square Chalk Soft Sponge for texture and depth lightly blending with Just Add Water brush. For the sidewalk I will probably use the New Simple Water brush for a light color of pastels.
