Surprise Trip to London

Flew to London on Monday to attend the Private View of the 199th Annual Exhibition of the Royal Institute of Painters In Watercolours at The Mall Galleries. I was thrilled to be this year's recipient of the St Cuthbert's Mill Award. 
St Cuthberts Mill has been making watercolour and printing papers since the 1700’s, and I look forward to working with their Waterford papers. I've been a saunch Arches man for 20 years but it might be time for a change.

  3. Once again, congratulations for your award.

    I do use Arches and Saunders Waterford papers.
    To me, the 300 lb Waterford HP is one of the best papers, its smooth surface allows to create beautiful effects and amazing textures.
    Please, let us know what you think ...

    Best wishes from Belgium.
