Pochade Yummy Goodness



http://www.allaprimapochade.com/index.html

I just got my new pochade box so I can finally start doing some plein air painting and I am beyond DELIGHTED by how beautiful this thing is! It took only about 5 weeks to get it but depending on his work load it may take longer. I have to tell you it was worth EVERY penny I paid for it! I also got an extra panel box and the sunshade attachment. I found the recommendation for this particular pochade on the Lines and Colors blog:

which gave reviews on a number of different ones. This one appealed to me the most and I am thrilled with it! It is beautifully made and very well designed. Everything fits perfectly and when it's closed it is incredibly secure even when you add the piggy back.

Go take a look!

THANK YOU to all the wonderful people I have met at Comic-Con

I just wanted to say how wonderful it was to meet so many great people at Comic-Con and to see some of my friends from IMC!! To all of you lovely people who gave me your feedback on my work and bought my sketches - thank you!! You have fed my soul and I am so thrilled that my work spoke to you! To the kind people who worked the Publisher's booths thank you for glancing at my work, giving me your advice and for taking my card. I hope to be lucky enough to work with you sometime soon!

I am still buzzing from Red Bulls and the amazing Igor Bar (I haven't had that much sugar at one time in YEARS!) and from the super awesomeness that is Comic-Con!

If you are one of the people who are interested in me doing a commission for you, please be aware that I received MANY requests! I will let you know how long it will take depending on how many people contact me but I will do my best to make sure you do not have to wait any longer than necessary! Also the price I gave you includes postage! The least I can do for your enthusiasm in my work! Keep checking back to see my new stuff!

Special thanks to Rick Bryant and Meryl Tihanyi for giving me this great opportunity and the wings to fly!! I wouldn't have had this incredible experience if hadn't been for you guys! Thank you!!
