I started 'Lollipop' on Thursday and here it is Monday. I decided on Saturday to finally upgrade my computer to Windows 10. Well, over 12 hours later it was done on Sunday morning when I woke up. Then Sunday, I had to play with all my new gadgets.
A colored pencil is a narrow, pigmented core encased in a wooden cylindrical case. They are either wax- or oil-based. They contain varying proportions of pigments, binding agents and other additives. Water-soluble and pastel pencils are also considered colored pencils.

Protecting your artwork and photos
Framing art protects it from dirt, dust and handling. I strongly suggest using a professional framer. While frames can be inexpensively purchased at Walmart, they will not protect a piece of artwork properly. Over time the piece can fade or buckle.
Anyone who has shopped for quality art supplies knows that they can often be expensive. Since I am a frugal shopper, I tend to shop around. Dickblick.com usually has the cheapest prices on items, combined with the discounts they give on non-sale items and free shipping. I create a list so that I meet the discount requirements when I am ready to order. I have an, "I want it now" attitude, so I usually opt-in for 2-3 day Fed-Ex Home delivery and pay $2-4 for shipping (a discounted shipping fee when you meet the free shipping requirement).
