I had some open stock coloured pencils sitting in a Jackson's basket for a bit. I use the Payne's Grey range by Caran d'Ache Luminance a lot and they are getting a bit stumpy. I also love the Derwent Drawing Ivory Black (and of course the whole range). I can get some of the latter open stock in Toronto at Aboveground and Midoco but not the full range.
Also I have been wanting to make my own stamps and lino prints especially after taking a mini workshop near home. I also took this class via Domestika online.

The instructor recommended the Pfeil .5 gouge tool to do lettering. I couldn't find it here or anything close to its precision so in it went along with some other Essdee cutters.
And I think there was a paper or Schmincke sale too so I grabbed a travel sketchbook and two tubes of watercolour. I wanted to try the new Naturals line by Schmincke. I chose Rügen Chalk but I am quite disappointed in it. Anyone else find it too translucent to be non-existent? I also got the Random Grey they do every year and I'm happy with that.
As I mention in the video Open Studio in Toronto could use your help as they are facing a critical shortage of funds forcing them to scale down but hopefully not close. They are located at 401 Richmond St W in Toronto but printers from all over travel to use their facilities or work with their master printers. They have courses as well and sell artwork from their members. So why not check out the artwork and pick yourself up something nice.

As always, be sure to check out my website. There are a load of things for fellow artists like colour charts that I swatch on this channel available for download as a pdf. There are art book reviews. There are instructions on how to make your own sketchbook (with video here on KZitem). I also have a list of art stores in different cities including Mexico City and my hometown of Toronto. And you can purchase handmade watercolour through my website as well. You can see what I take when I'm urban sketching as well.
