Life at the Disgo


I've come up with a new description of what I do all day long - It's called Disgo. That's because I spend an amazing amount of time going "dis goes here, dis goes there". *chuckle* (In between the laundry & the list making & reading email & blogs & thinking about making art). It's how my desk gets cleaned.
To improve art-making, I've realized that just owning scads of paint is not enough - you need to know what colour they make when they hit the paper. I've cataloged all my rubber stamp inks, gel pens and alcohol inks. Now I've done my watercolour paints! In each case, there is now a happy little index sheet with all the names of the colours and a sample next to it. Whaddya know? It actually makes me want to put paint on paper. Tomorrow.
