Today, I spent some time cleaning out my palette.  I had to resort to a wire brush, and the paint was still very, hmm, attached.  When I was done, I pulled out some paint that I bought at Daniel Smith in 2019.  It was from a visit to "the store" in Seattle; my son was with me and having a 16-yo tantrum and would not get out of the car.  I think we had to park illegally, so it was a hasty visit and there was no rhyme of reason to what I bought.  I've also thrown in cobalt teal blue, which I've really wanted to paint with of late.  
Colors from Daniel Smith:  Indian Red, Mayan Blue, Lunar Violet, and Phthalo green turqoise.  Also, nickel azo yellow, which I had--why did I buy more?  No idea.  
I tried not to put out too much paint so that I don't end up quite as locked in.  We'll see.  

Sigh. I am javing issues trying to vet this going o my phone.

Sold yesterday, via etsy. It is always super flattering when someine takes any kind of risk to purchase art without seeing it in person first. I'm equally shicked when people tell me they read what ive written.

I have two John Pike palettes that I use, and I laid them out several years ago.  Then I found that I don't have the colors I like to use together grouped quite right.  I'm trying to clean them out without tossing the paint.   

Just in case you're interested:  Isoindine yellow, Ceruleun chromium, carbazole violet and undersea green.   I ran out of the blue (ceruleun) before I could finish.  Darn (since it would have made my series more consistent) and yay (since one slot in the palette is cleaned out).

You should not be falling over since I've posted twice (TWO TIMES!) in a few days.  Go me :). 

Square bought Weebly in 2018.  I am obviously paying attention, ha! I am willing to give selling through my website on Weebly a try.  I'll start with this small work to kick off the new year. 

Next I have to figure out how to get my newsletter with my blog posts.  How hard can it be?  (I can hear you laughing. )

I hope 2021 is shaping up to be a great year for you--my goal is to paint a little bit more.  It is good to have goals.
