Barbara Newton Art Journal

The real purpose of this blog post is to celebrate the clean counter-top in the background. That is where my pastel painting alleyway used to be (shown the the small photo below). When I begin working in pastel again, I'll have big changes and improvements to a new working area.

I'm painting in oil for the summer with my oil painting station set up at the end of my big worktable. My good, old Soltek easel works well for table top work. I love my Soltek except for the problem that sand can get into the telescoping legs. My little Paint Saver covers are in use and working well.

Wishing everyone a happy Memorial Day.
