REVIEW: St Cuthberts Mill Watercolor Paper

St Cuthberts Mill started making papers in the 1700’s, and today they offer three watercolor papers — Saunders Waterford®, Bockingford®, and Millford.  All are suitable for other mediums as well. All too often at stores, artists are given a choice of white cold press paper at 300 gsm/140 lb weight and that’s it. This is the most flexible of papers, capable of handling the widest range of…

Day 11 of #Inktober2023 word was Wander. This is a piece about wandering where you don't belong. Here, a curious treasure hunter has entered into the wrong part of the cave.

I am now behind and playing catch-up, but I'm going to try my very hardest not to let this get to me - I just have to accept it as there is a lot happening in the background.

Black ink was used in this, some diluted into a grey wash. Same paper, Bockingford 300gsm measuring 28cm x 38cm.

...Can you spot Smashy the #squirrel hiding in today's entry? I doubt so since today's squirrel hunt is VERY hard. Best of luck to everyone who tries! 🐿️

📏 What’s your go-to canvas size? and 💐 Do your drawing suit your aesthetics? for the artist asks, please?

📏 What’s your go-to canvas size?

Varies, but usually 18x26 cm / 10"x7". My favourite paper is Bockingford hot-pressed and I tend to buy my watercolour pads in this specific size because it's big enough for detailed work, but small enough that I don't have to scan my works in two parts. If I work bigger than that, the size is typically 23x31 cm / 12"x9".

💐 Do your drawings suit your aesthetics?

Good question! I've heard people say I look like my art, but I can't see it myself beyond the fact that I have long hair and the same kind of hooked nose I've given plenty of my characters. :D I dress casual and rarely wear jewelry or makeup, and I wouldn't say I have an aesthetic of any kind irl. I make my characters wear all the showy, uncomfortable outfits so that I don't have to!

Still waiting on the laptop so I'm playing with my watercolour pencils and my Microns. I also have a bunch of watercolour papers that want testing. This one's a cold-pressed 90lb Bockingford sheet. Little bit of buckling but not as much as I expected. Felt pretty nice to draw on, too, and the pencils got on really well with it.

“BABU AND BIBI 2” (MR AND MRS), a painting in Watercolour done by me on A3 Bockingford 300 gsm Watercolour paper. This painting is an inspiration from the Kalighat style of painting after Anwar Chitrakar. ABOUT KALIGHAT PAINTING The painters of this style of painting are known as Patua’s or Chitrakars. The themes they covered were the characters from mythology and during the 19th century, they covered subjects like contemporary lifestyles, and social issues with a hint of wit. In this painting, a Bengali couple is seated and enjoying a warm afternoon. Kalighat painting was the first artistic expression of a subaltern culture in the Indian sub-continent that addressed the consumer directly; it was neither directed by nor produced for the capital or the ruling authority.

Fallout Oc- Selene(as a child)

My fallout 4 Oc Selene(but as a kid)

I redid this piece because I wasn't vibing with the first one-Honestly I'm thrilled I did, it really captures her essence and kinda likeness!

Info/Lore dump-

She's a fallout oc I've had since early 2017?? like slightly after far harbour came out? No clue it's been so long- She basically like Little Red riding hood, but she trains wolves to fight/as companions. She was born in the town of farharbour and moved to the mainland for a little bit until she was 8 after her mother died in childbirth . Her father Pollock also started acting really suspicious(he's a synth)-They found sanctuary at Arcadia until she was 12. But after her father vanished into the fog she followed but got lost, then was adopted by an ex-trapper and her wolves.
