I could rob a bank and not leave a trace! I have spent the last three days blending pastels on sandpaper with my fingers – I know, but I haven’t found anything to blend with that works as well – and now I have no finger prints! If I can’t make a living at my artwork, at least it has provided me a direction!
I did, however, get this painting completed today. I must say I really like this one.
I am very happy that my last 6 paintings have been so successful. I have taken the information given to me, that I have read and my training from years ago, put it in my back pocket and painted. Now I am getting a real feel for my technique. Bloody finger tips and all!
