Beautiful. What surface of Arches did you use to get such crisp sharp edges?

It's the NOT at 300gms. I love the feel of the paper and it is quite forgiving as I work very wet. I use big brushes - sometimes household for the initial wash and then use a mixture of 14 and a traceur by Issabey. It has a very thin centre with a large bowl of sable so you can be very precise and then have loads of paint to soften of wash out.
