I used Baohong Masters Choice 300gsm 100% cotton cold-pressed paper in about size A5 and Daniel Smith's tube watercolors. 

I'm happy with these two! I already did the last bird as well but it didn't come out the way I wanted, I don't even want to upload it at this point, it's that bad. :)) I'll redo it later on and update this post then. 

Thanks Patrick for the class! :)
