On The Wall Exhibition.

I have recently whipped up an A3ish sized artwork (9"x12") for Leeloo's On the Wall exhibition which will be held at the Sydney Finder's Keeper's Markets this Friday 3rd & Saturday 4th of December. 

I painted this picture on A4 paper at first, then realised I had my dimensions all wrong (Doh!).
So I re-did this one over night after buying some really thick watercolour card,
and totally fell in love with texture of it (no creasing or ripples = Hooray)

  2. cooool! i'm heading to the finders keepers sydney markets and am so excited to see this in the flesh.

    p.s. rippling/warped paper really sucks, huh!
    have you tried soaking and then stretching your paper down to a wooden/melamine board with paper tape?
    oh also, illustration board is pretty hardy and would be perfect for your fineliner work.
    you probably know about these already....but if not, hope that might help. i was in the dark for ages and wish someone had told me in the beginning.
