Cheap acrylic paints and inktense pencils.

The past couple of weeks I have been doing background pages in a Strathmore Mixed Media Journal. I have not been able to concentrate enough to do more than backgrounds. I have used cheap acrylic paints, inktense pencils, and paper doilies and stencils. When I am inspired to do more my backgrounds are started.
