Old Set Up |
It's Sketchbook Tuesday! Time to see what's going on in sketchbook land. This past week I received my online order of Koi Watercolors. I was looking for some lush, tropical colors and these fit the bill! The colors are much brighter than my usual palettes of Winsor-Newton and Davinci watercolors. I like BRIGHT colors because I live in the tropics where there is an abundance of tropical colors and Koi Watercolor Pocket Field Sketch Box doesn't disappoint. Love the compact size, even the 24 color size is small enough to fit my pared down art bag.
Yes! Did you just hear me say paired down? It is true! I've paired down my art supplies but stepped up the water color palette size. Yeah, yeah, it is possible to leave home without all the colors, but I don't have to with my new amazing Sakura Koi Watercolor Pocket Field Sketch Box!

It is just a tad bigger than my compact but it has 24 colors and comes with a water-brush too!!! Whoo hoo! Love it!! Throw in a few Micron waterproof pens and a pencil and I'm ready to go.
So what has me so geeked up? I'm getting ready to go on another adventure with my sketch buddy, Bonnie (see Sketchy Girlz blog). We're going to Michigan to visit my daughter and her family! We've lot of exciting things to do while we are there....including celebrating my DD birthday (Happy Birthday!!) and baby Jackson's SIX month birthday!
Oh yeah, there will be ice cream and cake!
All that AND an opportunity to visit a state I've never been to, with my BFF and traveling around with our sketchbooks too!!
Should be lots of fun and adventure....we'll keep you posted. Stay tuned!
Happy Sketching!
