Scratching

 

I made this little video so you all could see one of the many advantages of painting on aquabord like scratching. Please be kind: I have trouble speaking while painting. I guess multi-tasking isn't one of my strengths! 

Note that you should let the paint dry completely before scratching out any details. And I only use this technique on small areas, such as grasses, small highlights and whiskers.

I hope you find this demonstration helpful.

I Couldn't Help Myself

I couldn't help myself. . . I just had to do it. . . yes. . . I started a new painting.

I've decided to re-post this painting I did a couple years ago as it is still available for sale. This painting comes framed and ready to hang as shown in the image below.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog. Have a delightful day.

Blueberries

So this is where I'm at.  I wasn't able to work on this today, but made some headway yesterday.  I'm hoping Friday is going to be a big day for me in the studio.  I want to finish up the hydrangeas and really move on this one.

Thank you for stopping in.

January-2016
