..But it's not actually "in pencil". The pencil-like effect and old paper effect are digital, yes? Shouldn't the title be something like "in faux pencil"?

Probably. I've never thought about it outside the context of a digital gallery before.

In the digital context the ability to create the tiling is trivial - just using a piece of code - and the artistic bit is using the texture algorithms to recreate the naturalistic effect which my title draws attention to.

In this group where digital media and traditional are mixed the distinction does indeed become important and my title will perhaps mislead the viewer, something I do not wish to do...

Changing the title on DA is trivially easy lol. The "Faux" is now in there!
