A sketchbook as an invitation to travel… @susanknappsart takes us from the vibrant street markets of India to the landscapes of Bhutan. Through her pages, colours and scenes capture the essence of each moment, filled with movement, light and encounters.
A beautiful way to preserve memories of exploration, brush in hand.

With mixed media, techniques blend, ideas intersect, and experimentation becomes a true creative playground. Canson® Graduate Book Mixed Media adapts to your palette and your style.
Within the GRADUATE Book Mixed Media range, you can choose your paper colour: this sketchbook comes in three tones. White to enhance the vibrancy of pigments, grey to play with contrast and highlights, and natural for softer, warmer atmospheres.
Which one will be your favourite? #graduatebook #mixedmediaart
In this video, @evamariabirkhoff imagines a trilogy of watercolours where nature is reinterpreted through a single palette. A subtle variation of motifs and tones, carried by a great sense of purity in the composition.
Each piece interacts with the others, playing with rhythm, shapes and intensity to create a cohesive yet lively whole.

Carve, ink, reveal… @sharonmegret_art takes us into the world of linocut, a technique where every gesture matters. Here, the motif is first shaped into the surface, before being printed with strength and precision onto the paper.
A subtle interplay of positive and negative space, where contrast brings the image to life.

Have you discovered water-soluble graphite crayons? It is a medium that is both playful and powerful. You draw just as you would with traditional graphite, then, at the touch of water, everything comes to life. The line loosens, the pigment spreads with remarkable elegance. Rich anthracite tones emerge, deep and velvety, almost alive, while the gradients blend with a beautiful softness.
Here, the artist Jotaká uses Lyra Rembrandt water-soluble graphite crayons (@lyra_feelcreative ) on a Canson Graduate Book. The result speaks for itself. Many thanks to @jotakaillustration for this superb portrait.
In short: take a watercolour or mixed media paper from Canson, a water-soluble graphite, a little water… and let the material do the rest. #arttips #watercoloreffect
@joycharde , Canson ambassador, creates a rich and spontaneous floral watercolour here, where shapes intertwine and colours interact freely. An invitation to fill the page boldly, to layer, and to let colours meet and blend.

And you, do you enjoy working in abundance, or do you prefer to let the white of the paper breathe? #repost #floralart #mixedmediaart
