I take my watercolor sketchbook outdoors for some quick urban sketching, before fleeing from the cold to paint a portrait master study of a Waterhouse painting - all to test out the last Daniel Smith Artist Set I'm adding to my watercolor palette.
This limited palette of only six paints was perfect for these landscapes and portrait, and I'll go over how I familiarize myself with new paints and learn some basic watercolor painting skills I'd forgotten about...

My tiny watercolor travel sketchbook is made with Arches hot press watercolor paper. These Arches sketchbooks come in a variety of sizes and paper types, but strangely seem to be sold only here in South Korea (at least, that's where I've found all of mine).
For small format paintings, I generally like hot press watercolor paper, as the texture can be proportionally more distracting at that size. My larger, A5, travel sketchbook is made with Arches cold press watercolor paper, though, and I recommend both types highly. :)
