    Thank you for the tips.
    They have been very rewarding to study watercolor using your technique.
    I’m a beginner. And just I started because of your watercolours.

    All the best

    I had been away from Facebook for a few months, now I’m back and I realize how much I had missed you. Thank you for all your inspiring tips. I really like your easel.. Can it be bought through one of either Dick Blick or Cheap Joe?
