I...Jan, I love the second book, it too is gorgeous. I don't know why it wouldn't post on the site but I'm so glad you posted it in your blog post. Thanks for the kind words about the class. You've been working at it and I can tell you that it doesn't take as long as you might think to learn the whole process by heart. It happens almost magically at one point and you know it, know that all the little bits you were thinking about to "get right" are now happening automatically. And then you'll have even more excitement for the process (if that's possible—I'm really glad your excited about it). <br /><br />I love the linen cover and I love the sketch test you made of your pup—there's no better test model than a dog!<br /><br />I think you're going to have great fun on this paper and with the QoR watercolors you'll be able to have the saturated colors you want with less water. I think there is something almost "old world" about working in a book with the Gutenberg. (And don't forget it does come in the thicker weight too.)
