sometimes the smaller the better
a mini landscape of the imagination 2.6.16
On my trip this week to Opus Art Supplies, my favourite art store here in Vancouver, I bought some new paints, which included a much appreciated free gift of a tube of Cobalt Blue.
The 4″ x 4″ square of watercolour paper that came with the tube, together with
a mini palette of paints, were extra bonuses and a nice surprise…
…and perfect with which to doodle a mini landscape of the imagination.
Sometimes smaller really is better.
Machu Picchu Revisited
Machu Picchu 1.6.16
Every day is an adventure in the studio and today was no exception. With a sparkling new Arches pad, together with Krista’s prompt to choose our own adventure for this week’s Discover Challenge, Machu Picchu seemed to be the obvious subject to revisit.
Those of you who follow my blog will know that the greatest adventure of our lives was the six day trek my wife and I took in 2013 to Machu Picchu. I started the blog in May that year before we left so that family and friends could be part of the adventure, albeit virtually.
Over the past three years I have posted many photos from the trip, including a gallery in response to Krista’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Reward last year, but with her prompt today and my pristine new Arches pad, I think June may become Machu Picchu month in the studio.
Stay tuned…
