I’ve not seen anyone fill the pages with paint before deciding what to add, this is a really fantastic idea and I might try it 😊

Please do try! It's not really a new technique, a lot of sketchbook artist, prepare the pages like this, especially if they are going to work on location.

So beautiful! I love this idea of created unique and spontaneous background textures because once there’s something on the page, there’s less fear-of-the-white-page to stop oneself from just putting down some marks. I’ve been scared of keeping a sketchbook with more than pencils and pens but I’m hoping to try this and hoping it will make me feel more brave and inspired! Love your artwork.

Hi - I am watching to see how this is works but I see you also paint on both sides of the paper... Are you ever thinking oh I should leave blank pages in between in case you want to take something out. I am doing it because I love the feel of the paper after it's painted but ahhh I think I can make a book of this set but can't rip the pages out. OK. Going to see the background painting... hopefully. Jackie
@user-hn9iv4pz6i10 ай бұрын
How do you choose the colors for the backgrounds? is it accordingly to what you are planning to paint on them? For example, if you are planning to paint sea views you prefer to use blues/greens/yellows but if it is animals or objects or street views maybe yellow/violet/green/brown?. Thank you! Teresa
