Maybe that has been my problem with some of my issues all along!! :)<br /><br />Jean, The ease of blending is a JOY, being able to come back in and rework an area without remixing a color is great...and edge management is a blast with oils. The new odorless stuff makes them a great possibility again...Acrylics are still the choice for my wax collage and my other collage work...couldn't beat it!! Plus all my other stuff I do where I need fast drying media!Saundra Lane Gallowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11646614500887997846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2712810495877956396.post-64482416652190720302010-01-30T10:34:12.882-07:002010-01-30T10:34:12.882-07:00You are as adept at oils as the other mediums you ...You are as adept at oils as the other mediums you work in. You have captured the personality of Jackson in your painting. Having never painted in oils, I was curious as to what the things were that Carol reminded you of about working with oils?<br />JeanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2712810495877956396.post-87228066431310683072010-01-30T10:01:15.834-07:002010-01-30T10:01:15.834-07:00Wonderful job, Saundra!

It was a kick...I need her around all the time...to show me stuff, and especially to say BRUSH STROKES and make me think about it...! and Autumn Leaves...Fauvist is another word for wild beasts...Matisse was called that for painting with colors that were not local to the subject. hope that helps...:)Saundra Lane Gallowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11646614500887997846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2712810495877956396.post-82093979263183355262010-01-29T05:42:49.645-07:002010-01-29T05:42:49.645-07:00I am trying to figure out if Jackson is smiling in...I am trying to figure out if Jackson is smiling in his photo or if his little tongue is sticking out a wee bit?
