Found out that Judsons newsletter is separate from their website, so what I sent last week is nowhere to be found with a link. They have been so good to support artists' groups, and have donated a 9x12 Guerrilla Box for the past 3 or so years at the Ozark Pastel Society show. Thank you Judsons for your fabulous boxes and for your generous support of artists all over the world!
So, if you are an artist, subscribe to their newsletter...and you too can be among the 8,000 recipients of their monthly newsletter. In the meantime, you can read my special article at the bottom of their newsletter.

This Month's New Featured Product:
35% Off Terry Ludwig Handmade Pastel Sets
Pastelist Terry Ludwig decided to set out on his own to make the
right pastel by hand ten years ago. The result is one of the softest, most
sensitive color line on the market. His handmade quality shows concern for the
pastelists needs, from the square shape to the uniformly soft texture across all
densities of hue. Each pastel is
approximately 1 ½”x1/2”x1/2”, but because each pastel is hand crafted, size and
shape may vary.

French Cows, Pastel 12x18
Painting in Monet's
Garden in Giverny, France was the experience of a lifetime! (see above, left) The iris and
Wisteria were in full bloom, and the green bridge fabulous. We had a 3 hour
drive from our lodging, La Bonne Etoile in Fontaine-Fourches, France. Arriving
around 10am, our group was reserved to paint in the gardens on their closed to
the public day. The sun played hooky with the clouds...and it misted off and on
all morning. That prompted me to attempt the scene in watercolor... As is the case with plein air painting, we had to pack our gear for lunch at a
local restaurant. My Guerilla Box was up and down in a few minutes while most
others had multiple wing nuts and parts to reconfigure. Speed is of the essence
when painting outdoors...you want to be able to move about as the light
changes, or to change your view, or to go eat lunch! Since Randy and I each have a 9x12 box, and a 6x8 thumbox, we have various
stickers on our boxes for ease in grabbing the right one! I just installed the telecoping easel on my 9x12, and it is going to make a
world of difference with various sizes. Can't wait to sling some paint on it. The picture (above) is of Randy (my husband) with his 9x12 box open and ready for watercolor.
He is painting alongside Charles Reid's demo of a facade of a building with one
of the group posing for him. We were on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. I've carried my 9x12 box on another trip to La Bonne Etoile in France, and used
it for oils when studying with Ann Templeton of Ruidoso, NM. On a creative
writing and self-publishing workshop there in the winter of 2007, I was part of
the staff concentrating on getting the book 'Mélanger avec Amour' ready for
publication. On that trip, I took my 6x8 box, it fit snugly in my luggage.
