Working at the dining room table:
We had more than a foot of snow and it was 11 below zero--I couldn't get to my "studio." It's a little crowded and cluttered. (Okay, it;s a LOT crowded and cluttered.) The little vials are the dry pigments from France.
The photograph I am copying was taken December 28, 2013 by Harry Teichert at the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House. I hope to finish it soon and mail it off.

I do love these colors, great work. Keep warm.
Thanks, John! I love the earth tones. I am hoping to try the pigments with watercolor, as well, when the gum Arabic I ordered arrives.
made with homemade paints, how cool! looking forward to the finished piece.
