Hi friends! I totally forgot to blog this yesterday, I blame my brain fog on the snow but today it is sunny and I feel nice and sharp! I am so glad it is March and even though we have a fresh 6″ of snow on everything from yesterday the bright blue skies have done my mood a world of good. I was actually so warm walking the dog this morning that I took off my gloves and it is supposed to hit 40 degrees today! Where did I put my Coppertone? Hopefully, this means I am turning a corner of the winter woes, I am off to meet some old college friends for lunch today and I am feeling super positive. Spring is right around the corner, right?
Stuff I mentioned:
- Northern Exposure DVD *this is such a cozy, big-time nostalgia vibe!
- Arrtx soft pastels (NEW!)
- Paul Rubens 72 soft pastel set NEW
After I filmed Sat Chat on Friday I did play with the Arrtx pastels and filmed a couple tutorials and the review for them so that will be up on my YouTube channel tomorrow. I have had some requests for watercolor tutorials so that is my next priority. It’s funny that my to-do list feels much more manageable when the sun is out. I wish I could bottle sunshine and crack it open on dreary days. Anyway, in case my chat seemed bleak please do not worry, I am fine, just a bit dramatic when winter gets me down. Happy crafting!
Yes..Watercolor tutorials please! I’m trying to use watercolors on a black sanded background..wondering if Golden Absorbent Ground would work as a “backing white” for the swans and other minimal painted areas ??

Love your youtube tutorials..thank you for quick reply. Picking up watercolors at 73 years old and so much to learn and experiment with, but not enough years left !
