Some of us are having heatwaves, others haven’t had a summer at all, but who cares about the official weather - we can choose our own and paint our way into Autumn or Fall with these sweet mushrooms from one of my favorite books, the classic Food For Free by Richard Mabey. Join me for a podcast-style video with lots of chat about this and that - all art related of course!

About my brushes
I have always bought my favorite brushes from Drawell direct from Japan. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
