That looks like it took days, weeks & months to paint and you’re like poof and it’s done. You are the female version of Bob Ross. I am honored to watch you.

Ruth Wilshaw is a Mixed Media 114lb 35% cotton paper spiral bound (120 pgs) book good for gouache? Or is it too thin? I was gifted it for my birthday.

[@RuthWilshaw]

Mixed media paper is often great for gouache as it’s made to stand up to a variety of different art supplies! 💕

[@kineiya]

Thank you for answering.
