painting on . . .
. . . strange paper. Like a super heavy paper towel with a lot of laid texture. Click image to see the texture. The paper feels like and is as white as pure cotton.
It's very rough and highly absorbent (not a bit of sizing). I have to force it to accept marks from a pencil, but it slurps up all liquid superfast.
Just getting a finished sketch down is a win. I have a journal volume with this paper but I've cut out the book block to use the nice cover for something else.
I'm using the paper one page at a time when I'm in the mood for a battle.
Soluble graphite and w/c pencils, mostly dipped in water before each mark, and w/c.
