Canvas brush roll ...

I really will paint on *anything* and love one-of-a-kind items that are both useful and unique.  With that idea, I've painted a few canvas brush rolls. This is the smaller version at 7.5" x 15.5" fully opened 

"The object isn't to make art.

It's to be in a marvelous state

which makes art inevitable"

~Robert Henri~
Cabbage roses and Hydrangea on one half * Nest and eggs on the other
"You don't decide to be an artist.

Art gets inside you. It's like falling in love"

~Carmen Herrera~
You can choose which side you want to reveal depending on how you roll the canvas.

Rope cording keeps everything nice and snug. Perfect for taking to art classes * for plein air painting * or to give as a gift for the artist in your life!

"The more you like yourself

the less you are like

anyone else"

~Walt Disney~
8 pockets inside to tuck in your brushes, pens, pencils safe and sound 

"She's got everything she needs,

she's an artist

she doesn't look back.

She can take the darkness out of the nighttime

and paint the daytime black"

~Bob Dylan~ 

* dove update : Day 5 ~  lots of lovely cooing from her partner who sits on the roof watching her. I was able to catch a quick glimpse of one white egg as she re-arranged herself in the nest. It was all very quick but I was thrilled as I have been hoping to spot eggs. There have been some Grackle that have been hoovering around the branches near her nest that are a concern. The honeysuckle vine is filling out nicely providing a bit more coverage and camouflage. Weather has been gorgeous , not too hot and no rain in the forecast.
