When I was little I wanted a sister so badly. That never happened but I still get inspired by the relationships between sisters.

Today I spent some time creating swatches with watercolour. Remember I talked about this before?
I find it really helpful creating you own colour chart because you can quickly see how you make the right mix with the fewest colours. Perhaps you recognise the situation where you overwork a painting because you keep mixing and mixing without getting the colour you want?
I regular plate works really well as a palette.
My watercolour tubes come from Winsor & Newton and Schmincke. The hue called Brilliant Opera Rose from Schmincke is my new favourite.

Yesterday evening I found a Boodles catalogue and decided to draw some jewellery with ink and brush. One is a classic engagement ring (perhaps the stone isn't the go-to size) and one is a really cool emerald cut diamond. When you can't afford them, you can draw them!
I really like how you can go from really washy greys to dark blacks with ink.
