technicolor

week's practice b/w and color. like the feeling of b/w a lot more than color, but have to try it all.it's part of the learning process to find likes and dislikes.that goes for papers and brushes too.

what i really,really like is the aya inksticks. need to find more white dishes to have one for each color.

been looking at materials lately and cannot congratulate myself enough. bought a considerable amount long time in the late 90's early 2000s  and now they have more than tripled the price. same for looms and equipment.doing the happy dance.   v(^o^)v
