Thanks Shark and Sophista-tiki.

The sketch was only about 3x4 inches and done with colored pencils. I design on both white and black paper depending on what I need to work out - composition I mostly do on white, final design on black. Sometimes, the spirit strikes me and I do a sketch on black that I declare a final and go right to velvet.

Kapu Cave on the other hand, had a final sketch done on white:

The final painting, with a black base, would look radically different.
