Week Five: Being Cheap Sucks!

I have a problem, and that problem is convincing myself that cheaper is ALWAYS better.  I look at the dollar amount and always buy the lowest priced...Windex, toothpaste, jeans and my painting supplies.  Most of the time I save our family a few dollars of which I promptly spend at Starbucks on a $5 coffee, (I know, I know...).  

The point that I'm trying to make is that there is no way  for me to be a cheap ass, penny pincher when I shop for paints.  It always, and I mean ALWAYS bites me in the behind!  Dave's doing a little song and dance right now, "I was right! I was right!"  He is constantly telling me to treat myself and not to be so stingy.  Well Dave you are wise beyond your years and all knowing.  You are right!  

I will hence forth spend more money on my paints in the interest of not having to go back to the art supply store, waisting time and gas/bus tickets.  I will buy the best that I can afford and not cheap out!  This I do solemnly swear!  

What I really need is one of those guys who used to commission artists and pay their rent, and for their supplies and all that good stuff...Catherine of Bologna

Anyway, Week Five...




More vintage fabric prints...I'm having a blast with all the colours.  These are going to be GRrreat when it's all said and done!

Until next week...
