I still cannot believe how beautifully the watercolors are absorbed by this paper! I used WN watercolors and added a bit of Prismacolor pencil for a few highlights. This 'testing' is addicting!
Lin, you have gone WILD with your new paints! I know what you mean about the difference though, I just bought a small travel kit of WN watercolors and I could not believe the difference in the paint quality to what I had been using. Nice work on the iris, beautiful.
There does appear to be a difference in the photos between the results on the two different types of paper. I like the look of the iris done on the fabriano best. It certainly does look 'smoothly' applied. This is just gorgeous Lin! Such vibrant colour. :o)
What a difference! Now you are spoiling me with the new wc paper. Now, I'm going to have to get some. Beautifully done, Lin. It sure doesn't look like you have never painted before!
Mercy is right! What a difference, eh? You inspire me to try their cp paper. I'm a big hp fan (I'm a control freak ;D) but I'll have to give cp a go. Your painting is so jewellike and glowing!
You're Iris is just beautiful. You know you are going to make sales of this paper go way up. Maybe you can get a commission, or free paper would be better. I have hesitated buying any due to the price but now that Brenda listed a more affordable price I'll be getting some soon.
Beautiful, I love the detail -- I am getting ready to purchase paper and now may have to get the Fabriano as you can definitely tell a huge difference.

I like the different shades of purple on your iris. How do you do that?! (in an envious tone)

Nicely done (both actually) The detail in your stemwork on the top one is admirable

Both are beautiful but I can sure see the difference in the paper. Another great job by Lin!
