Cotton paper is better for this project because there is a lot of blending. Non-cotton paper dries too quickly.

I liked using ink and watercolor together. Some parts were difficult for me to hear because I have a hard time understanding accents.

One of my Most Favorite Courses

I love watercolor and ink. These cacti are so much fun and so easy to do. You could easily make lovely cards or mini paintings from this course. I made a large version of nopales cacti for a friend who does research on this type of cacti.
