Oh, how much easier it is to loosen up when you use scrap paper - or think you do (-: I played around with these garlics on a piece of thin paper that I found among some other scrap papers I'd bought at a local paper store here in Gothenburg. It felt like it would be good to paint on so I did and I really liked the way it absorbed the paint.
So with hopes of buying a whole packet of this paper to practice on, I went back to the store. It turned out that that paper was even more expensive than my best Arches paper )-:
(OBS - the paintings there are not only by me, though I wish because I've collected some favorites)
Have a great Sunday, hugs, Karin
Love the rich colour that you have got with this paper - how typical that it is more expensive than your usual 'good stuff'!
