Commissions normally involve more planning, effort, and stress than leasure painting. Especially when they are for portraits. Even more when it’s a portrait of a person and a pet. I will not say this was easy.

Watercolor 11x15" (28x38cm) Fabriano 1264 cp

Trying a new paper pad, Fabriano 1264, 140 Lb cold-press. It is much less expensive than the regular Fabriano blocks I have been using. I ended up with more hard edges than I wanted, but the paper did not disappoint for the price. It’s the artist that needs more practice with it.

Experiência com novo papel, Fabriano 1264, 140lb, textura média (cold-press). É muito mais barato do que os blocos de Fabriano Artistico que tenho usado. Acabei com mais márgens secas do que eu queria mas de qualquer maneira, o papel não desapontou para o preço. É o artista que precisa de mais práctica com ele.

Not happy with the original result, I tried to salvage this by adding the dark sky around the light toned church and the foreground shadow.
