Week 5: The 365 Series Goes On The Road

by Jill Austen on 02/07/15

Happy belated end of week 5, we're already in week 6! This week's milestone is that I packed my studio in a tote bag and took The 365 Series on the road. Here's what my pared down studio consisted of:

1 bottle purple ink
1 small tube cobalt blue acrylic
3 brushes
3 graphite pencils
2 charcoal pencils
1 large eraser
Set of 24 hard pastels
Set of 12 medium pastels
A random selection of my favorite Sennelier? soft pastels
Masking tape
Spray fixative
Scissors
A sketch book
3 sheets of 16x16 watercolor paper.

So much for traveling light!
