I started a 3.5” x 5” version of this last night, and I overworked it completely. I was very discouraged, and decided I was going to have to admit defeat. To add insult to injury, after really liking the way the seascape came out yesterday, I decided to tape a border on this, and when I went to peel up the tape, it ripped up the paper and part of the actual painting! In a way, I suppose, it’s better I learned this when I did.
I didn’t sleep well, and started painting as soon as I was up. I painted on the same paper as I used for the seascape, because I knew tape would be ok. It also seems to hold water better, despite it being 140lb paper as opposed to 300lb.
