@neschof Maybe gouache resist? I did a few for artshows, and people thought they were lino prints...even when I was standing right next to it saying that it's not. They are much quicker, apart from having to wait until the gouache is absolutely dry. I own big tubes of white gouache (not acrylic) and quart bottles of ink because there is a bit of waste involved. I use hot press watercolor paper and tint with watercolor. This is all in past tense because it's been a few years since I made one, but I used to love the reveal when the gouache washed away (our bathtub still has black stains).

@RachelArmington Ooh, thanks, I've not heard of gouache resist before - I'll have to look into it!

Hey all!
I also want to showcase a project that has been in my back pocket, but I have finally brought myself to it this week. I finished the transcript last night and I am in the middle of editing.
This is a cover design for my new book. What do you think?The story is about a little friendly ghost who is looking for a friend. Unfortunately, finding a friend in a creepy house can be hard to come by. Its only when a few kids come to ring his door bell, on a dare, that he gets his wish.

After two years of unsuccessfully trying to learn how to paint "artistic" watercolor paintings, I am admitting that I'm just a line and wash kind of person. This is a barn down the road from my house.
@Lee-White said on a podcast that he didn't understand why people always painted barns. I've realized that it's because if you live in a rural area, it's the only thing to paint besides trees and cows!
