More from my sketchbooks

Here are some more of my sketch book paintings. I use Stillman & Birn Delta Series, 5.5” X 3.5” sketchbooks. I like these because the paper is heavy enough to take heavy, wet media, and they fit in my small backpack purse. I also use a 12-pan Windsor and Newton travel watercolor set and water brushes. I carry these whenever I travel, and often when I go out. Here’s a tip: Did you know you don’t have to buy refill pans for the WN travel sets? All you need do is buy tubes of watercolor and refill the pans on your own. It saves money because you get a lot more paint for the money. Please excuse how poorly framed these photos are. I took them quickly so I could put them up.
