These paintings were all done on wall paper lining material. The two similar paintings are for my bathroom windows, the light comes thru. The big red hangs in my studio gallery and no one realises the material. The paper is very inexpensive and you can sometimes find ends of rolls. Really a fun thing to try

things I carry

These are some pictures of things I carry when I go out to sketch. I made the bag and made it to fit the sizes of the contents. I usually work on 1/8 sheets of watercolor paper, using a piece of foam board for a support. My water is in film canisters and I always have enough . My pallette was a blank that I filled with my tube paint.As you can see I have a good selection of brushes, really more than I need. The sketch book is one I just completed I bought a box of watercolor paper from Legion Paper. It is about 8 by 10,each sheet is a different paper and different finish. Some of it was pretty heavy so I only used 2 sheets in each signiture.
As you can tell the bag has been around a long time
The picture of the Tiny Art Book was a birthday gift. Just to show that I am still painting.
