Nicely done great yard

[@andywesselsphotographyart]

Thank you..... in fact the box got a little too heavy (mainly because of the lid) and I have made a modification to the original "design" 🙂

[@HARDYSPAINTINGADVENTURES]

@@andywesselsphotographyart I e made one I dint think the tripods up to the job too much movement

[@Pat_Ham357]

Nice build. I really like your painting style.

[@andywesselsphotographyart]

Thank you. Although I do not exactly consider myself a shy person, I am not courageous enough (yet) to go out and paint "en plein air".......

Nice box. I attach a piece of baking paper around my pallette with masking tape at the back. So I never have to clean it :)

[@andywesselsphotographyart]

[@andywesselsphotographyart]

Hi, did you say backyard? If so, what a wonderful backyard you have. Is your pochard light to carry, please? I just wonder if a lighter weight tripod might help?

[@andywesselsphotographyart]

Thanks for the comment. I do love my backyard.... tons of birds and other wildlife. Alligators in the pond, deer visiting at night, snakes around the house (and under), and we have seen a coyote once (they live in the woods at the edge of the pond. The box as I made it was heavy. I have since removed the lid and modified the box accordingly. I plan to provide an update at one point.

Great stuff but some sizes would have been good in the description box

[@andywesselsphotographyart]

Thanks!! I can add that to the description. The sizes were more or less "dictated" by the scraps that I had available though 😀

Thankyou
