Paper Woes Continue

 

Cactus Flower, NFS

   Paper woes continue.  I had a photo I REALLY wanted to be square so I picked up that Master's Touch 140 lb. 6x6 paper that tore before.  Maybe it's my masking fluid, I thought.  NEWP . Stupid stuff tore again and MAN is that frustrating when you're an hour into a painting.  Never again.  I'm going to buy some good paper today and I'm never going back.  Blah.  I'd have worked this a lot more than I did but tearing up the needles quashed that effort.

   This is one from one of my friends' photos so I may give it another go, maybe try it on hard panel painted with Daniel Smith's watercolor ground, since I want to give that a try.  The quest continues!
