| "Ferns and Tree" by Sara Light-Waller, watercolor 9"x12", 2012 |
Yesterday was Christmas and I decided to do a painting. We
have a lot of ferns growing in the northwestern US where I live and being able
to paint them can really come in handy when you’re out sketching. Today’s
painting was watercolor enhanced with watercolor pencils in a 9”x12” Stillman
and Birn Delta sketchbook. This was my first time using the Delta and I was
much impressed. It took the paint quite well with relatively little buckling
and withstood a moderate amount of scratching with ease. I did almost no
scrubbing in this piece but what I did do it handled quite well. Thanks to Stillman and Birn for making
such lovely and useful sketchbooks for us artists. :-)
Here’s my sequence for the painting:
