A wall of apothecary shelves: glass bottles of coloured liquid, brass scales, dried herbs hanging in bundles, lit candles, a skull, a mortar. Nothing but the cabinet, filling the frame edge to edge.

A thousand regions and no easy stretch anywhere — every bottle is its own small problem of glass, liquid and highlight. The most demanding page in the collection, and the most rewarding when the candles finally come on.

DIFFICULTY 1016 numbered regions, one 30-colour palette. Under 500 is a quiet evening; over 900 is a long one. This page is one to come back to.

    Paper texture

    A real paper layer on top, so it looks like gouache, not a flat screen.

    Palette in one tap
