Your talents never cease to amaze me. I used to love to draw with pencils and pen, however, I rarely pick them up. I was so excited to see that you rejuventated your brushes. That's a tremedous savings as here in the states we pay a big $ for good ones.

I've often caught myself wondering where I'd be today with my painting, if I'd focused on just watercolour and/or acrylics. But it just didn't seem to be my 'bent' or maybe even 'destiny.' And when I can look objectively (as much as possible) at all the different mediums I've used, it makes me realize how much I've learned from each one of them. So at this stage of my life, it will be interesting to see what emerges ~ On my quest to 'loosen up' and join the dots.
I'd been looking at the sable and squirrel hair brushes in the art store and one medium-sized squirrel hair brush was 150 AUD which is about 100 USD. So, I estimate that the largish brush on the right side of the smaller jar in the front, with all the watercolour brushes in it ~ Would cost me easily 200 AUD to replace.
So that little can of brush conditioner was so worth paying 30 AUD for.
I think you are also a woman of many creative talents. I love your intuitive readings, your soaps, your garden and your garden photography brings beauty to the world that is crying out for it.
If you ever did want to dabble with pencils and pen again, I'm finding that one of the best ways to begin again is just to reacquaint myself with my tools ~ Can't wait to use my 'as new' priceless brushes now. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
I can reflect back now more than ever before and see how everything I have dabbled in has taught me something integral that is very useful today. I have also used many mediums for art, etc. Each has added to my knowledge bank that helps my creative spirit soar. There are times when I lay something down for months or even years, only to pick it up again. It is like riding a bike, once you have it you never forget how to ride. Sometimes, I am amazed at where life takes me and right now I feel I am closing one major cycle with the coming new decade beginning. Not sure what I will be changing, all I know is something is going to. I am happy you found that brush cleaner as that saved you tons of money and now you can make your artwork with almost new ones.
I know wherever life takes us this coming year our creativity is going to be much more heightened than in the past. This is going to be fun. xoxoxo
I think we are like 'Peas in a Pod' Wanda. Have similar feelings about 2020. Our creative natures will soar and take us to many 'yet to be discovered' parts in ourselves and bless the work we do ~ No matter what it is. xox ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎ oxo
Woohoo, we are going to really have some fun next year. ♥
