		<description><![CDATA[ I went to buy a new 12" x 12" square frame today - the one I had broke but the major reason is that I promised my daughter's Mother-in-Law a painting for her church ... event ... not sure what it will be called yet ... if she wanted to raffle one off to draw in more visitors. I need to create a painting that is pretty and nice to put in the frame to be raffled or something.

BUT ... I do keep 90 lb in my studio ... for ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Every painting book I've ever read encourages us artist's to make color charts. I almost never make any ... never have ... probably never will ... BUT ... one exception to that is that I wanted to see how the ink colors looked on my watercolor paper using my <a href="http://www.docmartins.com">Dr PH Martin's Bombay India Inks</a> ... so tonite was the nite.

		<description><![CDATA[ Today was experiment with the Grumbacher MAX Oil Colors day. I had not used these paints before - I bought them awhile back but just had not had the time to work with them. My grandson came over today so I got them out and we used them to paint on stretched canvas.

I did not have any larger oil paint brushes that I am used to using - I threw all my old ones out last September when I moved because they were so worn out and I had not used them for a couple years. I planned to buy new ones but I had not done it yet.  I was sorry during painting that I only had the small brushes that are for oils or acrylics - I am used to using bigger brushes for painting with oils.

They thinned very nicely with water and they had the same soft ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Sunday is Mother's Day - I went to the local art supply store today at lunch - I bought Dr PH Martin's Bombay India Ink - two sets of it - lots of colors!  I've NEVER used India Ink so this will be a learning experience. I've done just a touch of reading about it so far.

<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India_ink">Wikipedia has a short article about India Ink</a>.  What I found the most interesting about this article was that it is now most commonly used for drawing instead of writing and printing. (No the "prison tattoos" part with ]]></description>
