Sophie's Yellow Paintbrush

This is my Monday Morning Drawing. I am going to try and draw and paint something every day. Simple stuff around the house to hone my chops, which are rusty. Can you tell I like color? Bright, clear color. This was sketched in pencil, then inked with a Zig Micron Pen and then painted with my Prang watercolors and an Aquaflow brush. It makes painting easy.

One thing that stuck me while I was drawing this paintbrush is how perfectly aligned the word CHINA was. I did not set it up that way. Yet CHINA screamed at me the whole time I was drawing and I wonder: Are there any paintbrushes made in America? I'm going to find out. I'll let you know.
