These were really fun to do. ...Thanks Christiane! These were really fun to do. It's hard for me to say just yet about the paper as I'm still in a real learning mode. When I feel like I can write more about it, I will. It's one of the things I hope this exercise will teach me. <br /><br />I can say that one of the frustrations I had with using the Colourfix Primer was when I used it on cold press watercolor paprer. It was not nearly as smooth as the premade Colourfix paper. The texture of the cold press was a real problem. I'm now using hot press paper and it's so much better, much more like the premade.<br /><br />I'm also learning a lot about the various pastel brands. It's interesting how different they are. I'm getting to have favorites for sure.Deb Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03909427145539569913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201948611412383558.post-54498283499245133622010-05-31T22:51:00.847-04:002010-05-31T22:51:00.847-04:00Deb, i admire your patience and perseverance...and...Deb, i admire your patience and perseverance...and beautiful results.<br />All three look vey different and this probably reflects your renewed enthusiasm for the series.
