Paint Party Friday - Lightning Storm

Welcome to September and Paint Party Friday!

A week ago we had a scary thunderstorm that lasted 4 hours. The skies were very dramatic that night and inspired my ACEO (Artist Trading Card) today. I'm calling it 'Lightning Storm'. I used my usual watercolour pencils.


It's my first time using this archival quality paper (2.5 by 3.5 inches). It's 240 lb watercolour paper, printed with an acrylic primer. It's suitable for oils, acrylics, watercolour, gouache, pastel, pencil,charcoal, etc. I really noticed the quality compared to the 90 lb watercolour paper I usually use. For one thing, this paper doesn't curl if you wet it too much.


Please stop by the other participants to see what they did this week.
