Feel free to ask questions in the comments!
Artist supplier Arteza sent me this sketchbook & the gouache and brush pen set for me to try out.
my thoughts on the sketchbook:
the size and weight is satisfying to hold and gives you a lot of room to work.
the wrapped linen cover held up well as it was thrown roughly around in my bag.
for every spread of cold press there's a spread of hot press paper. I preferred the hot press. the colors seemed to show up better and I couldn't get a satisfying/dynamic watercolor wash on the cold press. to each their own!
the paper did hold up well and didn't warp or bleed onto the other side.
I like the big pocket on the inside back cover for holding onto loose papers and such.

    Such beautiful drawings. I absolutely loved the landscapes. You're very good. I'm gonna look at it again later to study it better.

    Nice work. I particularly liked the dock scenes and the landscapes view from above... also the play of light on the side of buildings. Very well done! Thanks for sharing.

    Another amazing sketchbook flip-through! Have you thought about doing posting a real time sketch session? It would be cool to see your sketch process, tools you use, etc.

    I love all your sketches but the urban sketching is my favorite. You have a bit of everything in there, from Chevy ( a great slice of American ) to the quaintness of local coffee shops. I have a question please: What watercolor do you use (?).. because the blue pigmentation is fantastic! I subscribed to see more of your work but may follow you on Twitter if you post more there. Take care.

    thank you!! urban sketching is also my favorite :) I use mostly Daniel Smith colors, but that very intense very blue ultramarine color is by Qor and I'm in love with it. i post occasionally on Twitter but more on Instagram @herbcoil and still a bit on Tumblr (equivocations.tumblr.com).

    Hey Eleanor, I love your flip-through videos, they are so beautiful! Also very slickly produced -- I was wondering if you could tell me which tripod / equipment you use to film them? And any other tips would be gratefully received as I need to produce something similar. THanks! :)

    Hi! I'm glad you think it's slick, it's pretty low effort actually. I'm using a regular 3 leg tripod and a Canon EOS 7D camera to film (which were lent to me by my art studio). Natural lighting from a window nearby. Good luck!
