I love the earthy tones of the pigment, and even more, the memory of the way the sun warmed the earthen walls in the French village as we walked its lonely spring streets.<\/p>\n<p>On the right are a few sketches I did during our trip to France.

What do you find yourself returning to, or what would you like to try? I would like to try acrylic ink sometime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love art supplies &#8211; if you&#8217;re a creative person you probably relate to this.
