Linda: Because this drawing is small I used colored pencils.

Sharon: You're right I should use a better paper. i got hooked on brown wrapping paper when I was poor and in art school and love the color and "tooth." However, if I can find a quality paper that looks and feels like this i'll buy it.

I'll check out those websites asap. Any suggestions on a particular paper?

And thanks for reminding me about the Copley. When are we supposed to deliver the paintings? My dad is ill and my schedule is all messed up these days. If I go to the show, I'll probably ride down with the Pulidos.
