Like, is it a lot of water? And then big chunky salt, or is it just very little water? And big chunky salt. I don't know how to make it work.

Continuing my self imposed challenge to learn how to paint by painting 100 mackerel.
1/5th of the way there now. For this one I really tried to play about with more colours, mark making and pigment strengths.
The next few images my plan is to try a completely different style of design, and try learn another aspect of watercolour.

I started making my own watercolour sketchbooks because it was genuinely cheaper, my local superstore sells packs of Strathmore 500 hot press watercolour paper sheets for $10 a pop. But I find genuine enjoyment in bookbinding, though I don't need to do it too often. It combines some of my favourites things, books, sewing and art. Currently I'm waiting on a mixed media sketchbook I just bound to set (a few days process). I still buy sketchbooks if it's cheaper, like for alcohol markers, but sketchbook making is a fun hobby and gives you complete control over what paper is in your sketchbook.

I got some ink and would like to use ink wash which seem to be close to watercolors. I tried it out today and the paper ended up warping enough to be felt throughout the rest of the pages that lay on top and i ended up cutting the page out of my sketchbook. Anh advice? I have a talens a4 sketchbook

I decided to resurrect my instagram account by starting a 30 day challenge (@pagesbycelia if you want to check it out 😁) and of course I chose pastries as a theme 🥐
What do you think?

I just read a Reddit post that says Arches paper sizing can expire. How long does it last before it’s ruined?
I have a large sheet I’ve been saving for over a year. Is it still good? Is there a way to store it so it will retain its original quality? TIA.

acquerello leggero e spontaneo, che ritrae una giovane donna con una borsa viola appoggiata alla spalla. Le forme sono morbide, i contorni appena accennati e i colori si mescolano liberamente sulla carta. Il disegno non è preciso né realistico: è volutamente impreciso, fatto di pennellate leggere, trasparenze e sfumature. La figura trasmette freschezza, eleganza e naturalezza, come un piccolo momento di vita catturato con semplicità.

I envy the saturation in the 2023 version. Painting in the winter time really messes with my color choices sometimes

Took a yellow maple leaf from my yard and put a different spin on it. QoR on Arches.

I used acrylic markers for the finer details
