Recently, I recruited a few new artists to re-boot the Moly_X Portrait Group I'm in and we've been having a great time doing portraits of each other. I'm particularly pleased with the latest one I just completed:
This is the start of my own book for the exchange. It marks the first time I've tried to paint in one of these books and I'm really happy with the way it came out. I can't wait to see how the other artists continue this image. One of the most interesting things about these exchanges is how artists interact with each other on the page.

Wonderful portrait! Does this Moleskine have paper like their sketchbook? What type of paint are you using?
Great job on the self-portrait. I saw MolyX a couple of years back and thinking it's one of the coolest projects ever.
Thanks you two!
Shirley, the paper is the same as in the sketchbooks (thicker with a very smooth finish) and I used acrylic paint here. It works very well. I've heard some people have a lot of trouble working with watercolors in these books.
Alex, you should find a group and join in! It's a blast!
