Tonight I had a chance to see how well the paper in this journal handles lifting. This paper is turning out to be extremely well suited for the way I paint and techniques I commonly use. In other words.........I'm lovin' it!!!Pigment lifted beautifully with a 3/8" angular flat (soft - not bristle) without any damage to the paper.
My application of paint with this particular painting was heavier as I see how well the paper handles the super wet pigment. I am extremely impressed. I was able to paint on the back side of this page scanning without seeing any ghost print of this parrot.
Dip Pen with FW Acrylic - Sepia
#8 Round
Holbein - Marine Blue, Fr Ultram, Bamboo Green (used in the body) Leaf Green, Perm Yellow Orange, Raw Sienna, Bt Sienna, Bt Umber and W&N Scarlet Lake.
The Marine Blue and Bt Sienna were used for mixing the foliage dropping in Leaf Green in some areas while wet.
Special Note: I'm trying Scarlet Lake for the first time along with the Perm Yellow Orange................I really like this red and the orange just adds that extra light giving it some pizazz!
