 This is my desk on Wednesday AM. Last weekend found me poking around on the internet and I was searching for the photos of the stamps that had arrived from eBay previously. punched in the mfg not finding the specific stamps and came across Boyd's bears stamps. ( remember those?) funny thing 4 auctions followed me home and two have already arrived. (the wood is something like balsa I think, these have no weight to them) off to the left is a new set of watercolor paints, yes I know what you are thinking really? yes really this one has several purples and pinks in it. and most of my set or loose tubes are more greens and browns with a few primary colors type of sets. and these were cheaper than most the others. I did make a cheat sheet of the colors and played around a little bit on Monday night ( in the kitchen) in the sprial bound pad of WC paper I have going on with mostly just strokes in it. but, I am hoping to steal some time to paint some images soon. The weather has been off and on really nice here so, quite a bit of deadheading and cleaning out the flowerbeds has been going on in the daylight after work more than puttering around up here.

This was an impulse buy from last weekend that showed up from Amazon on Monday. ( there are a few purples in this set) and I have mostly been watching flower painting water coloring video's and so, with the limited blues and reds I have I tend to make the same shade of purple over and over. and I decided to buy this set because, there are a few shades of various colors and the price was not as bad as say Daniel Smith or one of the other "professional" quality paints. I bought those brushes to get the cats tongue one. That's about it from me, I hope you all are continuing to do well. Thanks for stopping by. The nest from last week was pretty much finished off just as you seen it with the addition of some black shadow across the bottom a little bit that evidently I forgot to blog about it oops, but it is in the gallery at SCS.
