Another version of Temptation
Thanks to Art Paper I had another meeting with the Palazzo Temptation block. This time not in a square, but in a block with dimensions of A4 21 x 29 cm. I do not want to repeat myself, so I refer you to my review of this block in a square. Palazzo Temptation Block Test
Another meeting ... And the block is tempting more and more. See for yourself ...
I believe that the PALAZZO Pokusa block is an excellent solution for watercolors that granulate and delaminate. The presented works were painted in only three steps. Due to the fact that the paper has a wonderful structure on one side, the pigment in the paints has delaminated into two colors, the effect of granulation and Temptation takes us to the artistic heaven. As you can see, I also used black archival ink in the pen to enhance the illustrative character of the works. Let me remind you that the Palazzo Pokusa block consists of sheets of high-quality acid-free paper with 50% cotton. A perfect companion for long and short journeys, work outdoors, because the block has a hard, stiff pad that facilitates painting.
Acid-free watercolor paper is the basis for its aging resistance. Pigments in paints applied to such paper also maintain their intensity and resistance to light for a long time, which is extremely important not only for the artist, but above all for the recipient of your art. Let quality be the determinant of your creativity. Thanks to the Palazzo, you can offer high-end products.
Let me mention that 50% of cotton fibers in the paper is its additional advantage. Cotton-blend watercolor paper is more durable and has a better water-wetting response, which I love. After all, this is what the art of watercolor is all about! It's not acrylic! Therefore, it is easier to use Glue on the edges keeps wet paper in a constant format, without wrinkles and deformations until it dries, if you use a lot of water, I suggest using a masking tape. It is enough to unstick the finished work from the block by grabbing the upper right corner of the page.
Another added value of the Pokuda paper is the fact that the sheets of paper are white, but have two sides with different textures. I am definitely a fan of the more invoiced website. The right side has a clearly granular structure, which allows for the impression of depth and color saturation in painting and drawing work. The left side is smooth and makes the image clean, bright and clear. Summing up, this paper meets everyone's expectations.
