I wanted to use a page from this strange old astronomy book I had (the mention of "the polar star" brought that to mind) so I found one I liked. The ink I use is rather heavy and sludgy which I love, but the paper from the book had a light gloss so I had to go over the ink. And over and over and over and over the ink.

It took me a staggering amount of time, but the results were worth it.Matt Kishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854685960260054407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-58242439644206987792011-01-12T11:38:06.010-05:002011-01-12T11:38:06.010-05:00Better and better every page!Better and better every page!Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17834360422359513050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-24488576067015855102011-01-12T09:24:40.553-05:002011-01-12T09:24:40.553-05:00One of my favorites, I think...One of my favorites, I think...Hannah Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15792203070774504501noreply@blogger.com
