Artist Apron

 Ordered an Apron from my Zazzle shop.  

Is very well made and will help me keep paint off my shirts. 

Putting Gesso on another canvas.

Tried working on one of my Pen and Inks yesterday too but unless I can find out what is going on with my neck and get that right hand fixed.... may have to put my pen and inks into storage, at least for now.

Finished an Impression

 A total deviation from my normal Pen and Ink.

Decided to finish my "Impression of a Storm", basically just Artfully slapped some paint on the canvas. 

Still wet so some glare to it.

Need to figure out where to put these until they fully dry. 

Can enjoy abstract painting, do not have worry about the handicap with the broken thumb and other issues with my hands. 

Use up the Acrylic paint I have decided I don't like much, because even though it is slow drying for acrylic, still to fast for what I want to do.

Think I will go back to waterbased oils in the future.

Practicing painting with Golden One acrylics

Decided this morning I was going to paint, the one or two chores could wait. 

With watercolor I have a lot more maneuverability.

 Still very new to the Golden one acrylic paint, does not dry as fast as other acrylics but it still dries faster than I like, even with adding water. 
 Makes me wonder if Bob Ross liquid clear would be compatible? 
That would extend the ability to blend. 

If you try to add paint when it is half dry all one does is pull paint off. That is something else to learn to deal with.

 Figure I would practice and get a handle on controlling the paint the way I want too, before I tried to paint one of the photos that my wonderful friends said I can use. 😊 

This is Artist licence practice painting... only about half way done and only base color on the big waves, still a lot more to do. Might blend the waves together to make one big one, not sure. 
 Have missed my Art more than I can say.
