In June, I’ll be taking a week-long plein air watercolor class with Tony Conner of Bennington VT<\/a> via IS183.org<\/a> which holds classes throughout the Berkshires. A couple years ago I did a one day class with them at the Clark. This one will be in Stockbridge.<\/p>\n

As a collector of art supplies, I was so happy to receive the supply list and then I started comparing it to the things I already had and… I had most of it. I finally put in an order for some full sheets of paper to cut into hunks and since I was doing that, a couple sheets of the plastic corrugated stuff which I like to use as my mounting board. I threw in a few brushes I’d had on my wish list. Locally I picked up a couple paint colors and one brush and a new eraser. Had that “back to school feel” except where you already have all the textbooks and notebooks you’ll need. <\/p>\n

I’d recently gotten a new palette to try out so I set it up using just the colors on the teacher’s list.<\/p>\n

You can compare it to my normal traveling palette here<\/a>. My home palette is larger but seems too large to carry around. <\/p>\n

I guess I’ll try out these colors and this palette before heading out. The new brushes are cool too. I’m all about the tools for the job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
