Use a pencil to sketch pumpkins over the watercolor background. Try not to match the edges.

Make some straight lines for a fall saying (this guide by Inkfurie works really well).

Sketch "Fall is here" and a few other fall words in the sky.

Use sumi ink for the fall words. (You'll see why later.)

Use Ziller soot black ink and a calligraphy pen (or a micron pen alone) for "Fall is here" ...

Brush water over the words with sumi ink. Though they feel dry, sumi ink smudges into a stormy sky.
