Drawing the back porch squirrels. Might need some more words.

And maybe I liked it better as a sketch?! Especially like the squirrel on the top left. Like the fact that he’s just a few lines drawn quickly but you know he’s a squirrel.

I painted it with this FanFare paint set my friend Mike sent me. The colors are nice and intense with a regular brush. They also moisten easily.

I did try once again to use the water brush but rather stick with a sable or a black velvet.

Just can’t get the hang of squeezing enough water to soften edges w a waterbrush.

I do think this is a handy compact gadget to have in your purse or car to paint with on the spur of the moment. Has everything. 43 juicy rich colors a mixing palette a sponge and the brush.

I will use it again. Thanks Mike!
