It is a compulsion
I want all the colors. I simply HAVE to have them. I could never be happy with just the box of 8 crayons! Well, never is too harsh a word. If I were stuck on a deserted island some where and only had the box of eight crayons I guess I would be happy with them. It would be better than nothing. In reality I live in incredible abundance compared to most of the world and I can almost always get what I want. To that end I had a good mail day as I received my most recent indulgence. Derwent Inktense watercolor pencils are absolutely scrumptious! They come in seventy two wonderful colors. I purchased the largest set I could find last year and then immediately regretted not waiting to find the largest set available. I should have known better. I have been purchasing the rest of the colors one by one and now I have the full set. I have experimented with using them on silk and really like the results. I will have to post some of those experiments.
