I love Eileen's "Gesso, and my hands." Gesso (for anyone who has ever painted, it is such a primal medium) is such an amazing material. I love the way that it comes through the weave, and shows up on the back side of a piece on newly stretched canvas. Like Laura, I, too, have found great inspiration in morning journal writing (If I do it, regularly, it truly seems to help me get to some of those sub conscious ideas that I find have been lurking, out of reach, just under the surface.). I also love the simplicity of Lottie's "broken dowel and a bottle of India Ink. It reminds me of when I was in art school, and a drawing instructor asked us to "invent" a drawing tool, and bring it to the next class session (mine was a dried bamboo stalk-it's tip carved with an exacto knife-and a bottle of India Ink). Thanks for another lovely batch of tools and techniques, Seth!Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985968063880398033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-18777800508165422372011-11-21T12:15:58.792-05:002011-11-21T12:15:58.792-05:00I was here last night, but got so engrossed in tec...I was here last night, but got so engrossed in techniques and tools others had, I couldn't get torn away from some of the places I visited.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-51317221329300141172011-11-20T16:05:53.957-05:002011-11-20T16:05:53.957-05:00Fun stuff!

Quite a few artists I'm not familiar with. Will take a spin and visit some new blogs now. Have to say the goat hair hake brush put a smile to my face. Love when I hear that people start each day with their journal. One day, maybe it will be my answer too!Jill Zaheerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081162581157568445noreply@blogger.com
