I love making postcards so much,

I mail one to everyone who takes one of my classes.

 I am still working with this undesirable w/c paper, 

I bought it on sale & will use it up & never use again.

It has a blotter feel, colors are absorbed & dulled.

My opinion, Strathmore is far superior. 

I will try to combat it with collage. 

And so ... a step by step.

quick sketches 

with an ink brush, 

followed by  

watercolor skin tone, 

then more color 

for background.

step 4

Then ready to collage ...

 

step 5

just playing and seeing what fits.
