Since this morning I have been quite busy organizing myself… reorganizing my colours in the Daniel Smith Travel Palette, cleaning them up, creating a color wheel, cleaning my fountain pens and really trying to figure out the “best” system for painting in my painting studio, aka my kitchen counter ;-)))
Depuis ce matin je suis en train de réorganiser, nettoyer et refaire mes couleurs d’aquarelle. J’ai aussi mis les outils (plume fontaine) et pinceaux que j’utilise pour dessiner et peindre. Une autre fois je parlerai des papers disponibles pour l’aquarelle. Ces photos ont été prises dans mon atelier de peinture… ma cuisine!
PALETTE
So I thought that some of you may like knowing what I draw and paint with… First picture is the open Daniel Smith Travel Palette after cleaning it today, with both of its mixing areas open. The second picture is with one of the mixing areas closed with a view of my colour chart.
COLOUR WHEEL
The arrows in my colour wheel follow the direction (from left to right) for my colour chart in my Daniel Smith palette.
