Sketch before breakfast Upstate.

I took watercolor with me and sketched  a view from the porch in the morning, it was fun to play with all that shades of green. Then I was called in for breakfast and it was no more sketches that day, but traveling and seeing old friends and eating amazing greek food.
Here sketching in a process, my cool gear.

Nikira, this is a beautiful painting. So many layers and so many greens. What paper is this? It looks whiter than moleskine. Is it a moleskine watercolor pad?

Best,

Nancy

Hi Nancy,

I am always looking for perfect watercolor paper sketchbook, so it would work with inks and watercolor.
