I'm Calling It Done.

I think I may have found a new favorite paper. This kraft paper has a nice warm tone and it's similar in weight and texture to a paper grocery bag.

If you're interested, it's the Bogus Recycled Rough Sketch pad by Bee Paper. It's 100% recycled and at 70 lb. it's sturdy enough to handle pencil, charcoal, ink, marker and maybe even a light wash of watercolor.

    Nice! It sounds like it might have a bit of tooth to it for the colored pencils, too. Turned out very well. :)

    Very nice - I like the white of the inside of the onion against the red of the onion skin!

    I love this, and I love that paper - I have some in my collection, and have never been disappointed with it. I haven't tried watercolor with it, but it handles gouache really well, as long as I don't overdo the water...

    Since the drawing of your onion inspired me, I've blogged about you here: http://unraveledattheseams.blogspot.com/2011/03/cuties.html
    Hope you don't mind. :)
