my favorite things
I love using materials that inspire the senses and allow me to get into flow as soon as possible.
Here a few of my favorite things to #bloomflourishandgrow each time I paint.
Brushes are essential! My absolute favorite brushes are a 1/2 inch angle and no. 2 round.
Completely obsessed with Liquetex Acrylic INK. All the fun of watercolor with all the vibrancy of acrylics.
Mix heavy body acrylic paint and acrylic inks for the secret sauce to my paintings.
Jane Davenport's Colorsticks are just the creamy smooth pastel punch that I crave and use so often to finesse details and color shifts.
I love the back and forth conversation between water and paint.
