A Straight and Proper Window

“I have learned, as a rule of thumb, never to ask whether you can do something. Say, instead, that you are doing it. Then fasten your seat belt. The most remarkable things follow.”
– Julia Cameron

 

A Straight and Proper Window
2.5″ x 3.5″ on Strathmore Textured ATC

It’s amazing how a painting on one of these little textured ATCs takes on a whole different look than it would on a smooth paper.  I don’t like painting on canvas that hasn’t had the woven texture primed away, but I like this texture with watercolor.    I have purchased the little packages of different types of Strathmore artist paper in ATC size and they are always fun to experiment with.

For the FTC:  I do not receive anything from Strathmore Artist Papers.  I just like their paper.  :)
