Workshop New Life For

Today when visiting my daughter, she brought home a sculpture that my grandson, Uri 8 yrs, made. I just had to shvitz (brag) a little.  It was chosen among others to be on display at the Dept. of Education in Jerusalem.

This has many layers, I sort of lost control. Has to sit around a bit till it tells me what it needs.
At Reuven's suggestion, the masonite was not gessoed. I really missed that texture

Day 15 30 in 30


I am finally getting a grip on painting in acrylics. I was in the habit of smearing the paint around on the palette like I do in oils, bad habit. They dry and form a film. Now I put each color in a small plastic cosmetic container (1" wide and 1/2+ deep) add a touch of retarder. Keeps them moist.
