1840 – Palette day

Yesterday it was time to clean and replenish my palette of paints. I gave up buying half pan refills a long time ago (far too expensive) and I fill them from tubes. These are a mixture Holbein and Daniel Smith brands, plus a few Winsor & Newton and some Chinese and Korean brands which I can’t remember the names of.

1011 – Waiting to buy paint

On Monday, having dropped our car in for a service, I had some time while waiting for the Arts Bar to open (where I buy my favourite paint, Daniel Smith). Naturally I used up my time by doing a sketch. This view looks from the Serendra area towards the BGC High Street. It was a lovely sunny morning.

713 – Paint

Yesterday the Doodlewash May challenge prompt was “paint” – I opted for the obvious interpretation. I have a mixture of Windsor & Newton, Reeves and Daniel Smith paints. The box is an old Van Gogh set of half pans, which I am also gradually using up.
