fun sketch kit

This was just too fun to not share! At watercolor class last night, we covered some pretty basic stuff; it is a beginner's class, after all. (But I love hanging out with these people!)

So part of the time, I did a quick sketch of Jill's wee sketch kit. A two-sided purse holding all she needs, including 2 tiny sketchpads --- in the form of a peanut butter & jelly sandwich! The whole thing, filled, measures only 4 x 5 x 1 1/2 inches. Her paint box is a used mint tin and easily fits inside.

Oh --- and Jill carries this treasure in her everyday purse . . . which is in the shape of a big chicken!

Plein Air "Workstation" for "On the Grounds at the Elms"

Elms Sketchcrawl - Plein Air

I hope all of you are enjoying your copy of Kate's "Artists's Journal Workshop" as much as I am!  It's an incredible resource, and I'm awed by the talent and information in the book.

It occured to me that I had a photo of my watercolor setup for the "On the Grounds at the Elms" sketch, so I thought it would be fun to post it here.  Also, here's a link to the photo on my Flickr site:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/liquidchroma-/2578737757/

Enjoy!
Steve
