Bargain Alert

If you haven't read my most recent Sketchbook Challenge post, it is right here.

I was out and about this weekend when I stopped in the park to have a good swing at the playground, there were no kids around hogging the swing set, so I took that as an opportunity. On leaving the playground, I saw a piece of paper tacked to a tree and fluttering in the wind. Normally, I would swipe it and stuff it in my backpack for use in my journal. But this was special, so I just photographed my discovery (and scrubbed the phone number in photoshop for good measure-you should support young entrepreneurs however possible, if you are local and would like her number, post a comment!). Way to go Beatrice!

I have been quiet here, I haven't had much to say and I wanted to try to combat this lapse. Here I show you the two drawers accessed from my workbench. These are all the tools I need, quick and nimble. This drawer shows all my acrylic paint. I should put labels on all the lids, and name the color in the jar, but. I am pretty organized but not that spazzed out.

Here is the top drawer. This one gets a lot of movement. All my favorite stuff is in this drawer. My pencil case, colored pencils, porcelain palette, water dropper (I don't mean to offend the religious among us-I have a loose interpretation of what might offend my higher power and using a Holy Water bottle as a tool in helping me paint is not among the top 100 offensive behaviors-on my list anyway), paint palettes, oil pastels, burnishers, folders, exacto. In other words this is a treasure trove of possibility.
