Art Finds from Santa Cruz

I arrived home from my week in Santa Cruz with a new book and 2 new purchases from a wonderful art store I visited in this University town. It was crammed with all sorts of wonderful goodies. I must have spent an hour there and had fun chatting with the staff people about their wares.

I love good paper. My most exciting purchase is the box of small Fabriano gift enclosure cards made out of wonderful 100% cotton watercolor paper. They are something I have been wanting to use for awhile but I could never find just what I wanted. Even the box they came in is wonderful with a rich Florentine pattern paper cover. And even better, I was able to buy envelopes to match!

Now to play with different paints and mediums on these small treasures.
