I’m away visiting my daughter for a few days, so it’s back to dabbling in my journals using a limited range of supplies. Of course O always decide I need one thing that I haven’t brought with me 🙄🤷🏼‍♀️

Being somewhat impatient, I love working with acrylics as they dry so fast - but I also like trying new things. In between work on my current big canvas I’ve been playing with some oil and cold wax on canvas board. I can see why oil paint fans talk about the richness in the colour compared to acrylics. However, I’m not a fan of having to leave them so long between layers 😴
