    Default "Bleedthroughmenade"

    http://www.notebookstories.com/2012/...itates-doodles

    This made me chuckle - I've moaned a lot about Moleskine's paper, here and elsewhere, but here's a novel take on it;

    "Got lemons, make lemonade. Got marker bleed-thru? Make bleedthrumanade."

    Essentially the artist uses the, er, qualities of Mole's paper to make two versions of the same piece of art, by virtue of the bled through side having a lighter, more subtle pallette of colour.

    That is pretty good use of Moleskine paper!

    It is inspiring work.

    I have yet to try out my Moleskine sketch journal which has reasonably thick paper and wonder if that too suffers bleedthrough.

    I haven't tried Sandra Kay Strait's bleedthru technique yet.
    But I have nearly filled out the Leuchtturm 1917 notebook upto page 151 today.

    Thanks for catching this. I would have missed it otherwise.
