I have been working long hours lately, and find myself hungering for time to play with my art supplies. One Friday evening recently, I tucked myself away in my studio with colorful markers and my watercolors.
I began with my Winsor & Newton watercolors in lemon yellow, Winsor blue and Hooker's green. After those washes dried, I followed my intuition in exploring the positive and negative spaces of the page with Posca pens, Faber Castell black India ink pens, a white gel pen, & a set of inexpensive permanent markers.
I have a voice within that says "Buy new art supplies, then you'll create masterpieces!"
But I find that my old familiar pens and watercolors are friendly and inviting. And I can create endlessly with what I have.
Why not dig out your favorite supplies and simply explore what they can do? I hope you have a little play time soon!
