Anyway ... this is sooooo funny!! I love your sense of humor, but also appreciate the skill it took for you to create this painting. You're right that using watercolors is quite different from acrylics - almost the reverse process. But, you don't always have to plan. In your case, spontaneity works. Now - I must go dry my eyes from all this laughter!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11037549177881696434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7910005928220163773.post-87835320514529137182010-02-25T13:14:04.067-05:002010-02-25T13:14:04.067-05:00Hallie, this lady has character, just like you!

I ordered these sticks from Daniel Smith--part of a five-color set that also contained brushes. They look like crayons and can be used dry for texture or wet. Then I got five additional colors and masking fluid (that will really require planning). These are for playing in the house without making a tremendous mess--fun. I'm considering a w/c card for those who've bought my paintings; I'm a bit late for Christmas--maybe a 4th of July card.hw (hallie) farberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11636182620056350811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7910005928220163773.post-76136442130469835782010-02-24T19:23:07.082-05:002010-02-24T19:23:07.082-05:00As always, funny!
