I think you should post some photos of your beach stones on your blog. It must be freezing up there - how brave to go out to the beach. Gwen, thanks for stopping by.

The contact from Derwent is "really happy" with it and says it was exactly what she was looking for. I'm pleased about that. Now they will frame it and send it around shows that they attend in Europe, and then hang it in their offices. Thanks for checking in. Thanks Kathy.

This piece is, as are all of your artworks, very beautifully executed. I think you were successful in showing the range of values with the pencils. What does Derwent think? Hi Debbi!

It was a lot of fun to have the commission and deadline. In the spring maybe we should both get a set of those Graphtints and play around with them and trade notes. What do you think?

It is an extremly delicate and thoughtful gem of a piece. You have been busy! I wanted to let you know that I too have perused the Derwent Graphtints in the Dick Blick catalog. I wonder if they can be used with success. Maybe even as a grisaille in underpainting? Debbi,
