More than you ever wanted to know about what materials I use... and the changing state of my art table. :)
My palette colors -- since then I've added Naples yellow and Paynes Gray
|
The way I arrange my colors. I've had this old, cracked palette for about 10 years now.
|
Recently added a travel palette for my favorite colors, so I can go outside :)
|
I keep my watercolor brushes in a bamboo thingy. |
These are the three I use most often.
|
Liquid frisket and the Incredible Nib! (It makes frisket fun!) |
All of my watercolors come in tubes. I use M.Graham, Holbein, and Winsor & Newton. |
My handy little cup thingys. And dirty old sponge. ;)
|
My Prismacolor pencils -- current ones in the wallet thingy, and replacements in the tin.
|
My ink box!
Mostly Daler-Rowney Artist's Acrylic ink with some Winsor & Newton here and there. Also calligraphy pens/nibs. |
Some nice burnt sienna and the trusty crow quill pen.
|
My fairly recent new toy -- Rapidograph technical pens.
|
Jar of pencils and drafting brush.... I like to use the H pencils best for sketching. 3H especially.
|
Other essentials... Q-tips to smudge colored pencils, a frisket pick-up, salt, water bottle, etc.
|
Oil and acrylic brushes. |
My shoebox of acrylics. :) I use mainly M.Graham and Golden brands. And I cannot do without my Acrylic Glaze Medium! |
I use a butcher's tray for an acrylic palette. Here is "Hamadryad" in the works. :)
|
I'm trying to learn oils! Not very good yet!
|
Sketching time...
|
And a sketch directly on the watercolor paper.
|
Beginning a watercolor painting. |
Is that "Flowers of the Field" in the works??? |
A very rare glimpse of a *clean* workstation.
|
The same.
|
Taped watercolor paintings in progress.
|
More watercolor stuff!
