Hi philebus.
Ya, part of the experiment was to attempt to work like the old guys did. To find room for my own expression while firmly embracing the requirements and restrictions of tradition. Like I said, it's a dream of something old.
Hullo Rosanne!
I'm glad you're pleased with them.
NO FRAME!!!!
It's set for the same 2mm white margin that you see in the majors. I absolutely love the "wet edge" that only watercolor can give you, where the pigment migrates to the edge of the pool as it dries. Cropping that might just kill me.
Gentle and graceful? Two of my favorite songs are "Beata Viscera" and "Safe European Home" So, maybe sometimes. Othertimes, not so much...
Hello monoazul313 and karenquilter.
Thanks for the comments.
I did quite a few test sheets in order to work out the background color progressions. It pays to practice!
Most commercial publishers have a lot of requirements that this deck doesn't meet, and I've decided long ago not to change course in order to comply. So, I'm happy enough with my little place out on the fringes....I'll do what I can to get a few out into the world, though.
