Sketch

Jade started sketching again and has inspired me to start drawing again too. Her art is amazing. She's now dabbling in watercolours and is doing a darn good job at it. I've got all my pencils, sketchpads etc. next to me constantly, just waiting for the inspiration to hit. Fingers crossed that it won't be long till I'm sketching again :)

I've found a really good art shop. I believe they do online orders too. Their prices are very cheap and they stock a range of products called Mont Marte. I have the three packs of pastel pencils, a tin of 12 different drawing pencils, a male mannekin doll and their watercolour and sketch pads. The quality is very good and like I said, very reasonably priced. Check out their site -

Jade and Brian went to the shop and Jade loved it. They have two stores in WA, one store in QLD and one in Vic. She said it had a nice, relaxed feel to it and being "an artist" she said she could have spent hours there, looking thorugh all the products.
