good starts
I picked up the thread with this one last night and carried out my intention to make changes to using the Shiva oil sticks A. sent me some time ago.
I like the very slow, controlled results from using very little paint on a dry stiff brush, sneaking up on shapes and creating depth and definition. Must take care to go slowly and not screw this one up. One false move with this stuff and you are stuck with a mess.
You would laugh to see me back my car out of what can be sometimes tight parking in our driveway. Think about the Queen Mary pulling away from her berth.

Happy New Year Deb!

So far the only place painted is the deep blue around the lavender circles. It is permanent after a drying period.
The rainbow effect down below..all hand dyed.
This is a wonderful start for another year of art. Hey - that's a poem.
Happy New Year, Deb.
Love it! I finally gave up on all my Shiva sticks except the gold... hmmm.. this is so nice, I am rethinking.
