Playa Paint Pals #3

More fun sketching at Bistro Escondido, this time with the Monday Playa Paint Pals.  I brought along a piece of handmade paper with bits of flower petals in it to try to sketch with. I am not sure what the paper was made from but the water colour and ink just soaked through and did not move or blend. It was also bumpy to ink on. Lesson learned, very pretty but not useful for anything in a sketchbook other than to glue something on (which will be it's use).
​
The second sketch I did was on precut sketching paper, not water colour so was not able to blend as I preferred but happy with the result. I did not realize I had not brought actual water colour paper with me that morning. I have precut my variety of papers for my handmade sketch book that I will sew and make covers for when I am home from Mexico.
