This little blog is a place to host images of traveling sketchbooks being traded back and forth between Nicci and mcdc3s (Maralena). We started with two blank sketchbooks with robot covers, and this is our progress.

My THICK THICK THICK New Spreads
So far, I think these are my favorite spreads (that I created) - background wise. These are so THICK and pliable. I would venture to say each side has at least four layers of gesso, papers, paints, etc... and topped with hand stamped images carved by moi! I am so glad this baby is being mailed "Flat Rate" Priority - otherwise, it would cost a small fortune to mail. It is HEAVY! I wish everyone could "FEEL" the texture of these pages. I just love the way they turned out. They are textured, yet smooth to the touch.
those look like they're going to be a lot of fun to work on! i find that the heavier the page, the easier it is for me to feel comfortable. i'm not afraid of ripping it or applying too much paint!
