I thought it wise for me to take a break from Interior Construct II. I’m almost done with it; I don’t want to screw it up.

So today I worked on an organizational project, that’s been on my list for a while. I researched various watercolor brands and which of their pigments are transparent or semi-transparent. I’ve been painting with watercolors for decades, but I’m not one to really pay attention to the technical details. However, I’ve decided I really want to paint with only transparent colors if possible. I also got a new palette in May and needed to fill it! Turns out most of my tubes on hand were transparent. I already know some of my own favorite hues and how they interact with others I use. I want to fine tune things while exploring the different brands versions of the colors I like. Over the next year, I hope to settle on a single palette of limited colors- a warm and cool of the primaries and some earth tones. There were probably 2 or 3 other simply because I’ve fallen in love with them. My new palette will probably be made up of my 3 favorite brands: Danielle Smith, Holbein, and Sennelier.
