Bringing Home the Goods L.A. Style

David had a doctor's appointment near Downtown LA yesterday so we decided to spend Friday exploring. I bought the above books, The Painter's Garden and The Blue Rider by Roethel at Hennessey and Ingalls (art books in downtown LA.)

I also took some photos:

We went to a few places including The Last Bookstore, Secret Headquarters, pizza at Two Boots in Echo Park and Stories Cafe and Books. We ended the night at Blue Rooster in Los Feliz where I bought these:

Yes, more of my favorite paint markers, Posca water based paint markers and (on the recommendation of my friend, Gerri) a Paint Puck (to clean my brushes. I can't wait to try it.)

Speaking of where I shop, I updated my list from 2010. If you're in, near or coming to Southern California, you may want to take a peek. These are all of my favorite places to shop for art supplies and books.

Have a pleasant Saturday, folks.
