I hope the new year sees you happy and well. Here’s my desk, where I’m working on my colours notebook, so I can see what shades I have in every medium. I’ve yet to do the watercolour pencils and Inktense. The circles are samples of A. Gallo’s new iridescent colours, which I’m hoping to use on a new project, an insect in flight. I’ve chosen to do a dragonfly. I’m scheduling this post as I’ll be at art class on Wednesday morning. Collecting and curating art supplies is as much of a hobby as painting, I think!
Bella sends you all purrs. This photo of her was lucky 😻
And finally…
Happy WOYWW, hugs

Waistcoat looks fab and I do love that cheery yarn. You must be out of it by now! Bet those new colours will be fab on a dragonfly so get cracking - I want to see it! Purrs from Poppy to Bella and the funnies always provide a nice morning smile. Much needed in this cold and dismal time of year.
Sneaking in a few before leaving for Drs.

Love the colours of the new waistcoat and it looks great on you! I agree with your thoughts on craft stash, it’s just as pleasing to organise it as it is to use it! Those new iridescent paints sound rather fabulous, we may need to see a close up of those. The Hybrid cat funny made me laugh out loud, brilliant!!

Looks like you're having fun with colour, love the waistcoat. I've always loved a waistcoat and have a few but never though to knit my own. Love the funnies and hugs to Bella. Wishing you a very happy and creative woyww, Angela x7x

Lovely waistcoat, it looks good on you, and I love the yarn, what pretty colours. The paints looks so tempting - there are few things nicer than new paints and making a paint card - I agree, it's a hobby in itself! Hope you have a good week and stay warm and cosy.

Great waistcoat and loving the colours too. I enjoy making colour swatches and organising my craft supplies too, there is that degree of satisfaction to it. I hope your art class went well too. - Happy WOYWW Michelle #15
Love the colours of your new waistcoat and I have to agree with you that collecting stash is a hobby in itself...and one I admit to.

I agree, curating supplies is rather a lovely thing to do, it sort of has that 'mine all mine' vine, especially when it's the gorgeous stuff like your paints. Must say you do have a beautifully considered collection!
That was my comment, I forgot to not be anonymous! And I was distracted by needing to comment about the paints, so I pressed Publish before wishing you a happy New Year! Xx
That waistcoat will be a cosy extra layer in this chilly weather. Love the colours. x x Jo 🌈
Oh what a delight to find lots of comments when I woke up again this morning. WOYWW is certainly my "constant" at the moment and I thank all you lovely ladies for being there for me, I am blessed.
No I don't take any vitamins or supplements at all, in fact you'd be hard pushed to get me to take any medications either, it's an OCD thing, so end of story. I do have my SAD light on and eat lots of fresh fruit and veg, nuts and seeds which ought to contain what my body needs.
Ohhh your paints look lovely. I have put a set of Wilson and Newton tube watercolours on my birthday list for next month with a pack of half pan containers. Don't really want to have a bigger paint tray/container but it looks like I could fit another 15 in my current one using the brush space & lid and the set has mostly different hues than my current "Creative Peak" set so that will be good. I am so loving my water colouring journey in my Bible. Super colourful waistcoat, nice and cosy for this cold weather. Think my menopause hot flushes are wearing off as I dug out a jumper yesterday!!! Shock Horror! Hugs BJ#3
