| April on the Calender 24 x 24 encaustic |
Last Friday, I went to the opening of Conversations at R&F Handmade Paints in Kingston, NY. You can see complete blog posts on the show at Joanne Mattera's blog and a visit to R&F at Nancy Natale's blog.
I was poking around the factory and found a color I haven't seen from them although I am very familiar with it. The paint makers make some wonderful mistakes. This one doesn't have a name yet but I am voting for LP green.

| Delicious ! |

| Please make some more |
I also found a note I sent to Darin propped up on the shelf. It was a patch of one lone pigment stick that I probably found in the special rack. I am looking for it again. I can recreate the color but it just doesn't have the same feel as the pigment stick.
I did find a reference for them while I was taking pictures-the gloves!!

I have never been to R&F... will have to make the pilgrimage soon..since I LOVE art supplies and especially wax relalted...did you and Elise have a great time in NY???
I like the LP green idea! Need to go visit sometime when I can take a break, it looks like lots of eye candy at RF.
LP Green is a fab color and so is that pigment stick and glove. Is that their Aquamarine? Remember when they had it as a limited color and then didn't make more?
Your painting is great!

Gorgeous painting!
Love the lushness of the painting and the photos at R&H! Beautiful!
I love April on the Calendar. Wonderful color!
Nice post, Lisa. Go good to see you at th opening.We had a good time!
I'm digging that spring green. It is indeed a Lisa Pressman hue. Re the aquamarine: I bought a ton of it when it was available. That's the thing about limited editions; if you like the color, you have to buy a lot.
The visit was useful. Content was really very informative. From www.indiafloristnetwork.com
