Hello sweet Bird,
Welcome to your MemberPackage from March and April. We have two bright and fresh colors for you. March and April is spring-time here in Europe. And peonies are blossoming everywhere. So I took inspiration of the Peony and have giving you bright floral colours.
March Pink: A lush pink Peony made with a Vintage Quin Magenta and a natural Buff titanium. It's sweet and soft and at the same time bright. It goes through a tiny color shift after drying, but it makes the pink look so natural.
April Green: I know Peonies' greenery is a lot more of a dark green. But let's be honest... how many dark greens have I made over the years? You must be tired of them. So I went for a bright mossy green this time. Made with a Vintage Mystery Jar of yellow pigment. ( I saw mystery because there was no label on the jar. I'm guessing a Cadmium Yellow ) and a PG17 Chrome oxide green. Together they are a power team for a bright mossy green.
What else are you seeing in your box?
A Little golden clip to keep your sketchbook open while you're painting outside in the wild.
A postcard with my latest drawing of Peonies. I'm planning to offer little coloring sets with paints in the future. So my birds get the first ones. It's printed on watercolor paper and you can use any type of media you'd like. The ink in my printer isn't waterproof, but the paper has sucked up the ink deep into it's fibres so bleeding is minimum if you use watercolors.
Little Note:
It's getting harder and harder to add little artsupplies to your BirdMember boxes. Not because there arent any, but more because I kept member prices the same for years. And due to inflation artsupplies and shipping are getting more expensive. I'M NOT RAISING PRICES. I think it's more than fair. But in the future it's possible you'll find more exclusive stickers, cards and product samples than actual artsupplies. I hope that's ok. <3
Thank you for sticking with me on the journey.
