Um. This new DA submission layout is interesting.

Aside from that, watercolor on some on-sale watercolor paper from one of those booklets of like 15 sheets or so, that I really don't recommend. If you want to paint something well, you have to paint in on good paper. I was not really trying to get the effect.

And might I add the "brand" of water color I use is not recommended. I thought throwing them crap out was kind of a waste so I'm trying to finish using them. They're out of the cheap wooden-case of "art supplies" that people buy from Walmart or OfficeMax for other people they know that paints or draws, out of good intentions, but failing to know that good art supplied cost money, and 35 dollars per a huge box might mean some really crappy s$%&. Anyhow... I got pissed off at also the crappy brushes I dug out of my box of other craps, and the hair on them kept falling off and I actually drove to Sam Flax and bought new ones in the middle of painting this.

I have quite a story to tell...

All and all, you get your money's worth with anything you buy, but that's not to say you can't do well w/ crappy supplies. I for one, have always used really crappy stuff (for the exception of color pencils, b/c good ones really do make a HUGE difference.) But that's changing slowly, cuz now I actually make good money.

And I'm not going to upload the actual finished painting here. This was painted b/c my husband has been telling me to paint something to hang on the wall... our house has nothing on the walls. XD And he's not into a lot of things I'm into...
