You know, my new DVD could get your started...Just sayin...OR, you could save the $20, and just go to Orvieto, Italy with me in May 2012, and I'll teach you to draw and paint while we're there.

    Like Pam, traveling to Italy with you would be heavenly, but not in the cards right now. It is a good day, because your dvd has been shipped! Now if I can quit tracking its progress from Colorado, I might get something done. LOL! Have a beautiful day, Jane.

    I just bought your DVD. I'm so looking forward to learning your methods and so bummed I can't come to Italy with you!
    On the video you use colored pencils, what kind? On your list of products you use, you mention crayons. Are these items one in the same? I'm going shopping tomorrow in anticipation of your DVD, and would like to know what to buy.
    Thanks for making the DVD!

    Hey Susan, I used prismacolor color pencils and caran d'ache neo color 2 water soluble crayons. They both work great on paper and cloth.

    Hi Jane, this is a lovely blog post! I would love love love to come to Italy with you, however as a single mum of two boys in Australia, I don't think that's going to happen!!

    When you say teabags, do you open up a used teabag and use the covering in your work? I have no idea how to use teabags in art....

    Hugs xxx
