Pyrrole Orange Hare
I have been trying to fall in love with this sketchbook but it just is not the same as either of the two cheap as chips unbranded ones I had in my stash that I filled and miss. It is not always the case that the better paper is the better paper, sometimes the cheap…

Playing in my new space
I spent today playing with different things, just seeing how my revamped space works for me. It will take me a minty to get used to things, but so far it’s a lot more fun to play in, and a lot more flexibility in what I can get up to. Having my old tall table…
