GARAGE SALE TREASURE!

Look what I found in a neighbor's garage sale!!!  Only $5 so I couldn't pass it up.  When I got home, I did a little computer research.  they don't make this particular set anymore but a slightly smaller set in the same beautiful wooden case was listed as on sale for $69.95.    This set was 99% untouched.  Today I took out my pastel paper pad and started a drawing.  I love using the limited palette of Conte Crayons.  The charcoal and greys start to look blue and so you can get a pretty full range of warms and cools with white, black, grey, ochre and sanguine (red ochre).  I didn't get the hands finished....probably another half hour of work.
