    My heart almost couldn't withstand this cat intermission, between Fenix in the backpack and Sally's belly all stretched out in the sun, there was just too much adorable for me to handle. The tiny little micro palette is really cute, but not quite as cute as those two kitties.

    WoW that looks so handy for painting like in the hospital, when waiting between appointments ! Wel yeah, when we’re aloud to wait again in the hospital :)
    This micro one is more a thing for me, as I thought the normal portable palette was a bit big for me. 6 colors is more than enough when your out.
    Oh yes please, show us some beautiful nature of the forest in Sweden. If you don’t want to paint outside, just from a picture you took on that walk?
    I also loved this painting, messy watercolors are the perfect watercolor paintings :)

    Kitties are adorable as always! You should look into the "cat backpack" btw. I think Jackson Galaxy makes them (or maybe is just affiliated, not sure). They're backpacks designed to carry your cats, they have a little window (air holes obviously!) and such so you can go hiking and stuff with your cat. They're on IG.

    I don't like having water in the sides of the portable painter, I always have issues dealing with the dirty water in cafes and such, so I bring my little watertight jars anyway. That's why I didn't like the bigger portable, the sides are just wasted space for me. With the micro I can use it as mixing space and the 2 corners are perfect for my 2 jars.
