Big Discovery

Today I made a fantastic discovery. 
I always thought I was a mediocre watercolorist.  Always used cold pressed or hot-pressed watercolor papers and hated my results.  Today, I used some scrap illustration board (I have lots of it left over what with the illustrations I am doing these days.).  The results were very good, considering the artist wielding the brush.  The painting is a miniature still life, about 3 x 4 and I will post a photo shortly.
