Boca Pass, 4x8" oil, ©Diane Mannion
Yesterday
Quick sketch at Boca Grande Pass yesterday near the Light House. Have a few small linen panels I want to use up, much happier with larger sizes. Picked a bad spot in the sun and didn't bring an umbrella. Note to self… get out earlier!
Used an old, favorite paintbox box, 6x8" Alla Prima Pochade… a work of art! Holds paints, short brushes, medium, and panels in one tidy space. Love to pop it in a bag and go paint.
And as long as I'm writing about art supplies, another favorite, my new watercolor box!
Pocket Palette by Art-Toolkit.com, is about the size of a business card! It has empty pans (held in with magnets) which I fill with tube watercolors of my choice. I use a Pentel water brush (water is in the handle) and a small Moleskine sketchbook. Small enough to carry with me always. Perfect for stealth painting!!!
Paintbox ready to go with thumbnail sketch created with Pocket Palette and Pentel water brush.
