Getting organized

After a very long break from painting,I have promised my self I will give it a go again.   Feeling like I’m starting over again.   I started to look at my supplies,and to figure out the ” in studio painting” and ” plein air  painting”

So I need an area I can leave my paints out. Half the time just getting everything out to paint is a huge turn off .

I’ve always had an interest in plein air so this is about getting organized.  After pulling out out all the possible bags I own to pack my painting bag.  Figured this is my best solution.

My let’s go painting bag

In here I managed to fit my “Meeden tripod”. My little seat,water color paper, palette,brushes, rags, small bottles of water and two plastic containers for clean and dirty water,pencils eraser and tape.  I’m sure I will add more but for now this will work

So this tripod set up is really neat.  There is a shelf to mix  colors hold water and what have you. My palette has a small mixing surface. So may just use it as a shelf.

These 3 photos show the different heights the tripod can be adjusted to. It is a bit flimsy so it is important to weight it down so wind doesn’t carry it away
I use this “aquatote”  which I put my jars of water and extra rags, tape.

Thanks for stopping by. I’m heading out to paint.have a great day!
