And graphite offers so much - hard and soft so different too. I did my first proper mock-up of the book and I think I've got it - yay! Have fun exploring...Fiona Dempsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275413906419343228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-19371520585080164872016-02-04T20:50:16.198+10:002016-02-04T20:50:16.198+10:00We could have fun MJ!We could have fun MJ!Fiona Dempsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275413906419343228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-79409704436279442272016-02-04T20:49:37.765+10:002016-02-04T20:49:37.765+10:00Thanks Rosie.

I love having it to reference in the future and it always teaches me something...go well!Fiona Dempsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275413906419343228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-67902300921154083052016-02-03T23:09:00.375+10:002016-02-03T23:09:00.375+10:00What a revelation watercolour on black paper is! I...What a revelation watercolour on black paper is! I have never thought this was even possible and my little brain is wanting to rush out and try it. If only I could get Scotty to beam me up and turn up at the workshop. Looking at the amount of preparation you have done already I can tell it will be a wow of an event and I'd get to see that book idea you've planned too... even graphite on black paper sets my head spinning with thoughts.Hope we'll see more as your ideas evolve although I know you must not give too much away as it should be a lovely surprise for your participants.LAC EMP 2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/01999825212820503519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-41622368984814163632016-02-03T03:56:22.118+10:002016-02-03T03:56:22.118+10:00oh, fiona, such a wonderful workshop... i would si...oh, fiona, such a wonderful workshop... i would sign up right away!mairedoddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01518352870828784085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-57798595332761693822016-02-02T23:45:48.578+10:002016-02-02T23:45:48.578+10:00Copper beech on black.....
