Packages, boxes and bags!

Finally gotten all the art supplies I ordered. I haven't opened any of the parcels yet (I wanted to have them all in one place before I checked the contents), but I had to leave for work as soon as I had procured the final few bundles! So that'll happen tomorrow...
Six of the strecher frames and the canvas rolls (the rolls are a whopping 84 inches long) had to be delivered to the church due to a technicality, and two trips were required to bring them home where I'll be working on them. Heh, I had to make 2 trips because I didn't know the front passenger seat of my parents' Matrix could be fully lowered down at first, oops. Plan is to assemble the frames this Saturday. Let's keep our fingers crossed!...


My herb garden, despite the fluctuating temperatures (30's then 60s, 40's then 70s...) is actually growing. I keep moving it back and forth from the studio (the room pictured above, which is full of frost-tender plants!) to the patio, depending on whether it's supposed to freeze, sometimes my mom does it. :D But on comparing today's picture to the last one I took, when it was 1st planted, I'm amazed at it's progress! I love little plants...

oh boy! What kinds of herb plants do you grow? (peppermint?) that is very cute how you drew yourself contemplating the art supply arrivals :)

From the top clockwise is Rosemary (yummy!), Catnip (not sure of the taste), German Camomile, Creeping Thyme, and Borrage. :-D
Lol thanks!
