So this method Arteza uses is more a FINALLY! moment for me--no more "translating" in my head. ^_^taimdalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470540564598882375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220865105573981879.post-36947181742423563302020-08-12T11:41:50.135-07:002020-08-12T11:41:50.135-07:00I am disappointed that the Arteza non-watercolor p...I am disappointed that the Arteza non-watercolor pencils are pretty water soluble.Anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14035565677611992715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220865105573981879.post-38209104535162820352020-08-09T16:41:10.118-07:002020-08-09T16:41:10.118-07:00Funny how there is really not any difference.
