The easel is one of my dreams. I love the idea of putting my paintings on it and leaving them until they are done...and there is not that issue with painting the edges and having them stick somewhere because I was so eager to move on.<br/><br/>The pencils I have talked about here before...probably before you began reading. They are made by Derwent and the colors are more intense...more like ink than watercolor. The part I like about them is when they dry, they are permanent unlike watercolor. I really prefer them, but I am sure it is an individual choice. I think you could also use them together with watercolor pencils.<br/><br/>Have fun exploring! I am glad you like the woman…she has some friends here, too :)

If you have an ink jet printer, you should be able to put a light watercolor paper through it fairly easily. Andrea is the one who told me about doing that and it does work well. I am glad you like it.<br/><br/>Awe, I do hope the Christmas Fairy can find the fund for this one...I am thinking, though, he is thinking of paying some tuition bills - a very, very worthy gift from the Fairy!<br/><br/>Thanks Suki!

Awe, I do hope the Christmas Fairy can find the fund for this one…I am thinking, though, he is thinking of paying some tuition bills – a very, very worthy gift from the Fairy!

Thanks Suki!

It seems so spiritual and peaceful. I don't know if I can put watercolor paper thru the printer. I guess i could try or maybe you can adjust the printer somehow. Thank you so much Kim for sharing your image and memories of Montana with us all. <br/><br/>So cool that you found your easel. I'll check out this link soon. Maybe the christmas fairy will bring you one????? Namaste, suki I am very drawn to this painting. It seems so spiritual and peaceful. I don’t know if I can put watercolor paper thru the printer.

I am glad you like it. That is kind of the way I saw it, too. There are artists here who do these kind of images and I felt moved to put my spin on it...that is a castle...a mountain castle! And in my mind, that is the way the Native Americans see the mountains.<br/><br/>Thanks Andrea! Awe, thank Andrea! I am glad you like it. That is kind of the way I saw it, too.
