30 Paintings in 30 Days
Day 15
Time for a change of pace. As I've said before, I don't go very far without a sketch book. Actually, I don't go anywhere without a sketchbook in the car and often a small one stuffed in my coat pocket too.
My old car had an assortment of dabs of various glorious colours of oil paint all over the inside and out. I wrecked many a fine jacket that way.
These days I'm mostly good and just take a Water Colour Thumb box with me. Often just a pen and a pad of paper and I'm in business.
I carry because you just never know what you're going to see. And it's a terrific way of fixing things in my mind so clearly I remember everything about what was going on around me years later.
Anyway, today is a new day. Time for a little pen and ink. I think.
