Oy! I worked on it last night and it's looking good. I need to look at it again tonight and see if it needs more. I was having trouble with the neck and the sound hole but sometimes you gotta just let go. :)
Well, sometimes I hold my brush tight and sometimes I hold it loose and sometimes I just set it aside and use my fingers, my fingernails and/or a paper towel! True story! When I finally get my fingers in the painting- that's when it starts working for me. I need to put the brush down sooner in some cases. :)
Thursday is April 21st and Friday is April 22nd. I sure would love to have two new finished paintings to show you. :) Are you in suspense now? What will Cheryl do? :)
That is so 'weird' about the finger thing.... because my medium of choice is a pen/cil... I can use a brush... but I don't really know how to(there are so many types of brushes)... if that makes sense... so often if I am making a poster or something really large... I use my fingers... I can smear the paint and rub it in to get the shadows... well, maybe it's not soooo weird if you do it too!!

Vertical... something different... I like it! Do you hold your brush tight at the bristle tip... or away and loose at the end?
~What's thursday & friday?
