OSHA & Cadmium Lemon

There is an OSHA regulations class happening at the boathouse.
It is free.

I like free education and I also have nothing to do today, and the weather is not nice for painting, so I went.

We were VERY COLD inside the boathouse.
The class ends next week so we will all know to dress a lot warmer.

Afterwards, Kedrin and I went to Blick.

2 paint junkies enabling each other............

She absolutely influenced me to get what she said is the best varnish brush.

I do not have a good varnish brush so I needed it.

I need some refills on various things I use a lot, and I needed another gallon of solvent.

This lasts me a couple of years, I think... definitely more than a year...

Anyhow it was more than I wanted to spend but I' getting paid for the remainder of my Driprock Arch painting next week which basically covers the whole thing.

Paintings paying for painting is is a great thing.....

I'm set for a long time on my refills. So it's worthwhile.

Also I have decided to add Cadmium Lemon to my pallet and replace my current bright yellow.

I have never been friends with lemon yellows, even though I think they are cool.

The yellow i use for plein air needs to be opaque.

Those "cadmium substitutes" are pigment mixes and have titanium white in them.  

NO THANK YOU.

It's good to mix things up sometimes; we'll see how it goes.
