Moleskine Doodles + Watercolors

   

If you are a regular at Daisy Yellow, you know that I am into extrapolating/ morphing/ extending one art project into another. These are creative experiments. Questions that go through my mind...

Can I do this on larger paper? Smaller paper?
Can I try this in acrylic instead of watercolor?
What if I started a page with a photograph?
What if I thinned the colors using a medium?
What if I added texture to the page before I added any paint?
I wonder what this [new] pen would look like on that paper?
Is it feasible to use this ink for a mandala?

The concept was introduced in Creative Experiments {are you in on the monthly Creative Experiments Challenge?}

That said, I was curious to see what would happen if I took the doodle concept from Doodles + Watercolors, which was on 11x15" watercolor paper, and compressed the idea onto a two page spread in my 5x8" watercolor moleskine.

Beyond cheerful.♥
