Found my Prismacolors (2020-03-24) I am super happy. I found my collection of Berol Prismacolor pencils which were stored away. I founde 130 pencils. They weigh 682 grams. I will uses these for the background of the pictures. (Click to buy pencils at Overstock.com)

Art Supplies (2020-03-28) My order of Art Supplies came in. I added a two bottles of India Ink and three new colored pencils. The tan pencil is described as a "colorless blending pencil." I am eager to see how well it works. I got the supplies from Mister Art.
