We’re back to our normal spring weather again – a daily
rotating mix of clouds, sunshine, rain and blue skies. This morning it was
mostly overcast as I made this sketch a few blocks north in the Maple Leaf
neighborhood.
Overcast here today too but we need the rain so I'm happy with that. Have a question. Do you still use your vest? I've often thought it would be a great way to carry sketchbook and pens on a hike or walk, and they would be easily available. Does it work for you?
Hi Diane! Unfortunately, no, I don't use the vest anymore -- it was a good concept that didn't quite work in practice because the temperature never seemed right for it! I either needed a layer over it, or I was too hot. But my Rickshaw bag has been working out so well in almost all situations that I haven't missed the vest. It's still a great concept -- and I noticed that Don Colley still wears a vest for all his pens! :-)
