Nice illustration and tongue twister.
I am still hurt by the idea loosing my Bijou, by stealing, so I even wrap it in extra bag inside the other bag, and never leave it home.
On the third hand… there might be something wrong with the site. My comment appears under my post, but not on the list of comments nor in the numbering of comments above the post – even after full refreshing of the pages. Leo, perhaps something for you to check!
Nice soft colored pencil look to this Ziza.
Seems I have to re-sign in for every comment I make because it keeps kicking me off. Oh well, I can be as stubborn as this site is.
Thank you all. Actually, I was trying to teach my daughter how to make the most of coloured pencils, using as template a children-book illustration made by my late father…
Ziza, thank you for watercolors info. I have Cotman, I like it. Also amazing Lukas, 48 colors, its for home. And Russian Leningrad, of course. Japanese antique set, but my heart belongs to Holbein Shin-Ganzai, which they not selling in USA anymore. I have 21 year old set. Half dry and empty, but colors are different there. One boy from Inna’s college said he’ll get it for me from Japan, still waiting. I even spoke with Holbein company in Japan.

I trust your taste. However, I have brushes from different companies, and I’m not very happy with Holbein-Japan (reasonably good for oil, though). I haven’t tried their paints. But please check this guy for brushes. I’m gonna order most of his pocket kolinskies: http://www.rosemaryandco.com/pocket-brushes-reversible-c-126.html
As for the watercolours – Talens-Rmbrandt rules!

That’s the spirit. I sincerely wish you many happy uses of that one, and when time comes to replace it with even better one (if there is). I have two of those:

top quality watercolours, two Van Gogh’s (medium quality), 1×24 Cotman WN and one Schminke Horadam set of 12 (74112) http://www.schmincke.de/produkte/aquarellfarben/horadam-aquarell/horadamR-aquarell.html?L=1
I’m just kidding of being envious, or do I?
Thanx for the compliment, and I wonder if you faved it (since your comment came without increase in number of hearts?
