I am here for 3 weeks.... one week alone to paint (I have a wonderful hubby.. he gets it!), and family including hubby, daughter, grandaughter/grandson arrive for 2 more weeks. So, I have great expectations of myself... I brought 6 ready to go, right sized drawings. I'll get at least 3 smaller ones painted this week... the rest, hopefully across the next 2 weeks. I brought all my inks in a plastic case, and fantastix in a plastic bag.. pretty simple stuff! So the inks are ready... the stix laid out in numerical order but for often used non color colors (black,white,gray) shown in a margarita glass, and metallics which I rarely use.
I'll post more later. By the way... Registration for Road to California in January 2010 is on line as of the 7th. 2 of my 4 classes are already filled. Check out the faculty and classes at www.road2ca.com. Now to the Palapa Bar where happy hour begins and I get 2 "Tickets to Fly" for the price of one. Probably my first and last drinks of the week.... but they are seemingly all fruit juice. Right!

Hi Patt
Mexico, wow, what a wonderful place for inspiration and a holiday! I see that you have taken your inks with you. I took mine to Mexico last summer in the van. The case you had them in looked very efficient. Could you let me know the brand and where you purchased it. This year we are going Saskatchewan, Canada and I must take my inks. A better case for them would improve my chances of using them effectively....Donna
Inks travel well... screw the caps tight, place in some plastic case, and check them in you bag is okay too. I usually place the plastic case in another plastic bag as insurance, but honestly have never had a leak. Yeah! A hard plastic case can be found at such places as Michaels, Joanns.. tho I 'think' this one came from Fry's electronics. I've never had problems traveling with these iks into hot climates... but have been warned by the distributor to be careful traveling in cold climates... eg.. don't leave them in the car overnight where they might freeze. So... I wouldn't. Happy painting!
