I received my shipment of Vasari Paint from the Paint Grant award!
The paints come packaged so nicely it’s almost a shame to use them. But I can’t wait! The web site says Vasari is …truly a painter’s paint…the one paint that will make you a painter’s painter. I certainly hope so!
It was so much fun to order. A big part of the pleasure of winning this grant is in being able to luxuriate in the possibilities for trying new colors from Vasari’s online catalog.
