Hi
I recently purchased some 150gsm cotton rag handmade paper.
Not having used it before I was looking forward to trying it out.

I decided to start out with coloured pencils.
I love the texture and I think it lends itself to coloured pencils wonderfully.
I mentioned in my last post that I am learning a lot about the type of art I am drawn to.
One thing I have learned is that I prefer a more muted and
natural colour palette.
I have already had an interest in handmade books and abstract landscapes
but would love to explore these further.
I had a lovely comment from a fellow blogger Giggles asking me to post
a couple of links to what has been inspiring me lately.
I can't find a way to share my Pinterest boards here on blogger
so here is just a taste of what I have found to inspire me recently.
I hope you enjoy checking them out.
