Happy New Year

I rang in the new year this year in a new way, I was painting. Tia and I discovered a new technique, unique to Montana. Painting with cattle markers. Cattle markers are oil-based sticks, resistant to fading and weather and are applied directly to livestock for the purpose of displaying ownership. Some local artists have been using them to create artwork. We picked up a set of markers, they come in 9 different colors, and have been experimenting with them.
I want to thank Bo for sending a great little art book on living messy, and Tia for encouraging me to get off the sofa!
Enjoy!

Where do you buy them? Do you use them directly or do you need linseed and whatnot? I lurve what you are doing. I'm glad you are inspired. That is fabulous.
