I just spent money! Contact the news stations!

I picked up a $49 set of pastels and some assorted paper. It all added up to about $80, but I'm proud of my new found freedom! Not to mention excited about this new medium. I even have a handful of people who are willing to pose for photographs or even sit for me. Including a pastor who wants to me to come over to his church to take photographs. Hopefully a church will offer some good lighting.

About saving oil paint: I pick up my blobs of paint off the palette at the end of the painting day and put them in a big Tupperware container and put them in the freezer. There are lots more tips about saving paint on the Forum if you do a search
Thanks, Ive never tried that. There is nothing more frustrating than having more paint dry on your palette than on the canvas!

Matthew
