Giveaway

I promised to show you the bare essentials I carry everywhere with me. These are the things I cannot seem to live without, and use on a daily basis. The first pic shows what fits in my well worn tiny polka dot purse.... small supplies for a small purse. 

💭permanent black Sharpie

💭White Uniball signo pen 

💭non permanent black marker (to paint over with water and let the black bleed out a bit)

💭tiny spray bottle of water (I spray the paint to help activate it before painting, and I use it to clean my brush as I go) this is a new one, mine usually looks pretty dirty 

💭leather journal from redwoodwillow (I have also gotten an even smaller version from Amazon) 

💭Altoid tin filled with: 

            💜half pans from  imlothmelui that are handcrafted and came with a magnet affixed to the back so they stay put

imlothwatercolor

            💜half pans from redwoodwillow that did not come with magnets attached so they are held in with sticky tac 

            💜 a small pencil with an eraser 

            💜 a small brush (I broke it then sharpened the end till it was small enough to fit. I use the sharp end to scratch into wet watercolor for  an interesting effect)

            💜 a folded up paper napkin to wipe my brush on

This all fits because the only other things I carry are cash, cards, stamps, BurtsBees chapstick, Mr. Rogers "encouragemints", hair band, pen, comb and a pocket talisman or two.

                                  And

Here's some pages I haven't shared before .... 

Then when I know I will have time to paint I carry a bigger bag that will fit the following extras:

💭strathmore visual journal

💭Jane Davenport bright watercolor set

💭a bigger brush
