@16:30 Two things: 1) that Joyce's Mother Violet totally slays me. WOW. 2) i see that as you finding your voice. And it really is that beautiful to see where you started and where you are now (at least in the youtubes) 3) I agree with @MrsBarnabas - never apologize for yourself or your creations

I just both the same sketchbook from Aliexpress just hot press paper version. I love it. I painted very soft human face in probably 15 wet-in-wet color layers with drying in between, and the paper performed superbly. With so many water layers even Arches or Fabriano will start to show signs of fatigue. This paper did not. It does look like having very nice sizing in it.

Tip: If you use fiber paste, watercolor ground, cold press ground, gel meduim etc. on each signature. Then the problem of bleeding through the holes disappears. By putting a tiny bit on a tooth pick or remove the cotton bud and use the tip of the qtip stick to dab the stitches and seal the holes. Problem solved.

Thank you for the review. I don't mind having 2 different textures in the same sketchbook, as long as the spreads are uniform. They should have folded the sheets alternately in an opposite direction within each signature. This would give all spreads the same texture on the left and right pages. So I guess these sketchbooks are not for me.

Thanks for the splendid review. I saw the Potentate sketchbook and was contemplating whether to buy or not. I guess I have come to a conclusion after watching your video. I will buy one solely for practice, swatching, small projects etc., but I'll have a better quality paper (on stand by) for more 'serious' work. 🤭

Thank you for the review. I just stumbled upon this on Ali and wondered if this one is nice. I am bummed (and expected) that it's not literally 100% cotton like Baohong. I wonder does the water seep through instantly and smoothly like an actual cotton paper? How many glazes can it handle and would the paints be removed if you layer over them? This book may look like one of those fun practice books but I like quality.
@PaintinHiding 6 ай бұрын
no, water didn’t seep through instantly. if that were the case, that means there is no sizing. this one has SOME sizing but not as much as standard watercolor paper. i did not test how many glazes it can handle. would paint be removed if u layer, that’s hard to say as it also depends on what pigment you’re painting with.

hi horsewoman :) jackson's doesn't currently have that system in place. if you'd like to tie your order to my affiliation (not sure how to word all this).... then the easiest way is to make sure you have all you need in your cart, then click on any of my affiliate links. it should most likely tie us together :) the URL link will end with f3173935ed8ac4bf073c1bcd63171f8a ... hope this helps. thank you so much for considering using my link, i really appreciate it 🥰

I was hesitant to buy this since i seen a lot of reviews said not worth the upgrade or just get another brand if you want a 100% cotton, while I’m fine with cotton or not ( hahnemuhle britannia is my fav for celulose paper ) texture definitely plays into it as well, so if each page is a different texture i probably will not get it
