The mixed media (Canson XL) sketchbook is not good for pure watercolor (top painting). I think the paper is too thin and it doesn’t accept the water.
Seond little sketchbook works well, has quite a bit of texture.
Third painting is on mineral paper and hard to get darks because it’s almost (but not quite) like Yupo paper.
Just playing around and testing what I have and what works with each one. I have so many sketchbooks. I used to buy Arches and Fabriano in full sheets but have changed to sketchbooks more often since I don’t paint large anymore.
Still having issues with Blogger asking me to sign in over and over and not downloading my photos until the 3rd or 4th try and sometimes I give up. And sometimes cannot post to friends’ blogs, either!! I still haven’t gone to Instagram and learned anything there to post something - just look at artwork there for pleasure.
