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.

A fellow urban sketcher asked me to show what kit I used, so instead of posting a photo I decided to draw it. This shows my Winsor & Newton field box (still going strong after using it for 25 years), a fresh A5 sketchbook (gold line, white 140g/m2 hardback), a fold up pencil case from National Bookstore stuffed with Derwent watercolour pencils, various brushes (including a couple of Pentel water brushes) and fountain pens and at the back, my case logic bag which I stuff it all in. I can also fit a little fold up stool into the bag if I want to – though it makes it pretty heavy.
