This month I decided to try a little different look at what is on my table - I pulled my backpack out and dumped on my kitchen table things that were with me during the last week or so - and in particular during the last two days of drawing - last day of May and first day of June.
And here is what I got:
Additional notes:
1. The perfect water container to take with you outside is Nalgene Jar from the Nalgene Travel Kit I got a long time ago.
2. Erasers are such a help in my printmaking toolkit these days that I am bringing them to the classes that I will be teaching this summer - Urban Sketchers Seminar in Chicago and Sketcher Fest in Edmonds.
3. I wrote about the Expandable Handbag Insert Purse Organizer with Handles before - there are photos and details about that bag in that post from September 2023. And it is still a very convenient way to organize a mess and move it from the table to the bag and from the plein-air setting back to the bag.
4. The First Aid Kit bag is a gentle way to carry a surprising amount of things and opens up well so that you can easily find anything inside.
5. Gouache sticks are tempera sticks for kids - I am sure their lightfastness is a joke but they are soft and unruly and as fun as drawing with lipstick and I hoped to paint some peonies with them this weekend - hence this collection.
The gouache and watercolor palette needs cleaning, water should be changed and I probably will remove some pencils before heading out to paint this week. Or not!
