As I mentioned before the package from Italy arrived just right in time last week and so I could already start to paint in a new watercolor sketchbook from Lorenzo Santoni handmade papers. The quality of the paper is as excellent as it has been in my first book. Hopefully I find some free time soon to test the single sheets of his paper, too. Here are my first 3 entries in one of the new sketchbooks.

Wie ich schon zuvor erwähnt habe, kam das Paket aus Italien genau zur rechten Zeit an und so konnte ich schon damit beginnen, in einem neuen Aquarell-Skizzenbuch von Lorenzo Santoni handmade papers zu malen. Die Qualität des Papiers ist so gut wie bei meinem ersten Buch. Hoffentlich finde ich bald etwas freie Zeit, um die Einzelbögen dieses schönen Papiers ausgiebig zu testen. Hier sind meine ersten 3 Einträge in eines der neuen Skizzenbücher.

Beautiful paintings Carsten. That paper sounds intriguing, I wished that I could get a hold of it but I think that it isn’t available here.

Thanks so much, Margaret! 🙂 Give it a try. It is not available in stores. You can contact Lorenzo Santoni via Facebook. Maybe shipping is a little bit more expensive from Italy to the US – but it should be possible. I really fell in love with this paper although it is a little bit tricky to work with.
