Yesterday, I spent the morning with my husband at the Oscar de la Renta exhibit at the de Young Museum in San Francisco. I loved sketching so many of the clothes - I was in heaven. There is something about sketching fashion that really loosens up my hand and makes the lines just flow! I was using my watercolor watch and alternatively, my Sennelier metal travel box - but was told by a guard about halfway through that I couldn't use any paints in the museum - especially not in this exhibit. So, I used my tiny color pencil set from Japantown and added some watercolors when I got home yesterday.

Here are some of my Instagram posts where you can see both my sketches and the actual garments.
