rapidosketch
I wonder how many people have heard of a rapidosketch...I never had until I saw one in Michael's the other day. And I looked at it hard to see if it was different from a rapidograph. I could only see so close through the packaging, but I picked one up today and realized that it is the exact same kind of pen, except it only cost me about $7 instead of $22. I think it's a new thing for Michael's to be carrying Koh-I-Noor products. Also found a new Fabriano product called a Quadrato, which is a square sketchbook with all light colored Ingre papers. Should be great to work in...only downside is that it lacks about 100 pages, compared to their journal sketchbooks.I wonder sometimes if my calling really is to be an art store purchaser, for how much I love to browse through art supplies.
I would have to agree with Caitlin here about the best job in the world. We don't get all the new stuff in Finland but I'll definitely be looking for a rapidosketch - thanks for the tip! (you might find the picture on the right somewhat familiar :)
