John's new paint box


John's made a fantastic job of his new pochade style paint box which he brought to class this week. 


And here it is pictured alongside mine.   My box was inspired by pictures I've seen of artists working with the Guerrilla  boxes and one or two other ideas gleened over the internet over the last year of so and I made it from  various bits of scrap wood from the garage and thrown out on a building site last plus fixings from my favorite hardware shop - Izod and Burnip on Southchurch road.  It really has worked a treat as it has meant I can create small scale works with pretty much everything I need contained in the box.
