    What are your favorite sketchbooks to work with? The pages look so nice and flat, even though you used watercolor. Im also really interested to see a video on your urban sketching kit! The process of deciding what youre taking with you. Love your content!❤

      My favourite sketchbooks at the moment are the Beta series from Stillman and Birn. They have blue covers and you can get them in the UK from Jackson’s Art. I like them because the paper is very smooth and can take quite a lot of watercolour. I hope to make a video soon sharing what materials I take when sketching on location 😊

    Thank you so much for sharing! I absolutely love your style. I usually work with ink first and then color it but you inspired me to go straight to painting. I feel the urge to go out into nature and paint right now.

    This was so inspiring! I need to play more with my greens. I tend to mix mines but I have a few gorgeous ready greens I don’t use much. Looking forward to warmer days to paint in the landscape. Btw I bought your zine but I was looking for a whole book, you should publish something on urban sketching, your style is gorgeous. ❤

    What a treat to take a peek inside your sketchbooks. Your work is absolutely gorgeous. I appreciate seeing and hearing that you use five different shades of green. I'm going to have to get a larger palette so that I can try out some of the ones you've shown. Thank you for sharing, Lis.

    I bought oxide of chromium based on your recommendation. Although I have terre vert I’m not entirely sure how to use it - yet. Such a treat to see all these sketchbooks. Thanks for sharing ❤
