well I got myself 3 used books on painting and colored pencil technique . aaanndd Drum roll please.... MY NEW COMPUTER WAS JUST DELIVERED 2O MINUTES AGO!!! Im completely shocked I thought It wasnt gonna get here till next week. It seems like I have a bunch of new supplies because I went through my studio and found a bunch of great stuff I didn't know I had. LOTS of really nice papers and a grocery bag full of Windsor Newton and Grumbacher tube watercolors. I also found a whole stack of professional pallets, so I cleaned one off completely and squeezed out all new colors. I've got a brand new pallets of good quality paints. Now back to the previously scheduled art making!!!! Merry Kinishmas all of my great art friends here on TC xoxoxoxox Dawn |

Well, no supplies this year for me. Haven't had the money for anything new, but my Mother In law did buy me all 3 Tiki Water Fountains from our local Walgreens store. I've been dyin' to buy them myself since I first saw them, but this is just as well. Can't wait to set them up. |

I got a gift certificate for Amazon and have been looking at large format printers. I guess that is an art supply since I will using it to make bigger prints and film for screen printing. |

All I got was a rock. Achulky I got some colored Sharpies from Fishsticks which I use a lot in postcards and the drawings I give away. But speaking of not giving stuff away so much: I also go a swell digital camera from Sparky and Cookie which means I should be able to photograph and post pictures. And get rich off of Tiki, of course. |

Many of you know that getting a decent picture of your work is often harder than creating the work in the first place! :lol: I got me one of those diffuser light boxes with the 2 lights and tripod. It won't make my art any better but if will be easier to photograph the flaws :D |

I got nothing, Santa dissed me, luckily I have a pretty good stash of supplies. I had to settle for the no frills, basics for christmas, like making the house payment and enjoying some heat and electricity. [ Edited by: Sophista-tiki 2010-12-27 13:00 ] |
