Alas! dear Falada, there thou hangest

Lightly sketch the main composition, focusing on the placement of the figure, geese, and architectural elements.

Apply a light wash of diluted brown or sepia ink to establish the base tones and shadows.

Layer darker washes to define the forms and create depth, especially in the shadows of the stone wall and the folds of the dress.

Use fine lines of ink to add details to the geese, such as feathers and facial features.

Introduce subtle color washes, like pale blues and pinks, to the sky and the figure's face.

Use a dry brush technique with darker ink to create texture on the stone wall.

Add highlights with white gouache or watercolor to emphasize the light and create contrast.

Refine the details and adjust the values to achieve the desired atmospheric effect.
