Fabriano

Bonjourno! Visiting the Museo della Carta today in Fabriano was a great experience. I use Fabriano watercolor paper for most of my watercolors and to actually see where they make the paper I use and the process in which it gets made was really interesting. I bought some of their handmade paper which was only 2.60 euros, which is extremely cheap for such high quality handmade paper, so I bought two sheets and two of the other large machine made sheets. Looking forward to beginning some washes on my new paper! Italy is a great place for inspiration and the studio here at La Romita really makes me feel relaxed and able to paint freely. Ciao!
