Watercolour sketch of sandstone houses and outbuildings with a canal in front.
Pen and watercolour sketch of houses in Bathwick on the Kennet and Avon Canal, Bath. This was a test for my new Rhodia watercolour sketchbook. I was really happy with the way the paper took watercolour without buckling, and the pleasing texture of the cold pressed paper.

Thanks! Moleskine isn't great tbh, and I've found some of their sketchbooks have more texture one side of the paper than the other. I tend to stick to strong colours, and try not to do anything too subtle. I'm terrible at using 'good' sketchbooks though - they just stay in a drawer for some reason!

Thank you! Yes, and it's harder to do a pencil sketch first which helps with looseness.
