I like them too.<br /><br />And yes, I could glue my paintings into the book, but the washi cards I normally use are so thick that the book would quickly become awkwardly shaped, and probably exceed the dimensions allowed. <br /><br />That's why, for this sketchbook, I printed my artwork onto thin, commercially-produced, imitation-washi printer paper.

A lot of Sketchbook Project participants do just that. But I'm not clever enough --or maybe I don't care enough-- to figure out how to make it work with my washi cards.dosankodebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04357411708254011194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3540266278914019686.post-22528243713556404922011-07-30T23:00:19.782-07:002011-07-30T23:00:19.782-07:00Is anybody actually able to draw or paint directly...Is anybody actually able to draw or paint directly onto that paper?Your solution is a good one but it is shame to pay for scanning if the images are spoiled by the transparency of the paper.
