Blustery Monday

I am staining tracing paper with coffee currently, photos soon. My hands are soft and dryish and yellowy brown from being in the bowl of coffee, they smell lovely though. The salt isn't working that well with the watercolors, I think I just need to play with it some more. I opened up a box of new oil pastels Saturday, helping Lauren with her lesson plans for her middle school art classes and rejoiced. How art supplies smell! Something so small, yet pleasing through and through.
