Chase Sutherland Ha, ha. Yeah, you could be right. It is fun to see how small you can make a kit and have it still be useful. However, when I’m running out the door to a family gathering or somewhere where I will be sitting a lot, it’s nice to have a small ready-to-go kit.

I also swop palettes out as needed. I love your magnetised water pot. Great video....

Jane Walden Thank you, Jane. The reservoir is the type that you would find for oil painting, primarily. They usually just clip onto the side of a palette and hold something like linseed oil.

Having a small set up definitely helps! I've even noticed that I tend to keep the kit in the kitchen and bang out a small sketch, once in awhile, at the kitchen table when, normally, I wouldn't have gone down to the studio to do the same sketch. Having it around has made sketching more spontaneous. Here's a link to the little cup on Amazon... www.amazon.com/Sea-to-Summit-X-Shot/dp/B007TGWKW4/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=sea+to+summit+cup&qid=1553875729&s=arts-crafts&sr=8-8

Travel kits are my LIFE BLOOD. Seriously, it’s like everything to me. This is a really complete and well-rounded setup! I think possibly the bulkiest part of this set is the bag itself, and even that’s no so bad! Really love the magnet on your water reservoir! I’ve been toying with using those clip-on metal reservoirs that are generally meant to be used for oil painting and slid onto your palette, but using a water brush so often has made that take a back seat for now. Thanks for the tour! I’ll have to do something similar on my channel because I’m betting something I do will inspire someone else, just like your magnetized water cup has for me.

Perhaps by retirement in 25 years time I will be able to sketch well enough to be satisfied with my attempts. This is a great video. I am thinking of building such a kit to get me out and about sketching and painting rather than sitting in the house. Especially during the spring/summer and autumn.
