I think maybe in smaller paintings that’s the way to go. easier to create detail? do you think? I did a painting of Hazel-Rah from “Watership Down” a couple years ago thinking I could get the fur more exact but I think at the time I didn’t have the right brushes. Just curious what your opinion is.

That’s very lovely, BTW!

It's far superior, IMHO, to canvas. The strength and durability on this acid free surface is the best for detail! Tiny brushes are a must - I only have one good one left.

I like this one, but I wish I could redo her face and a few other things. I did have someone tell me they were going to make a dress like hers.

Thanks!
