Alice dressing up

Did some more work on Alice ( as I have decided to call her). A way to go yet but I am pleased with the colours and contrast, This painting is destined for an exhibition in Oxford at the end of this month.

all this talk of exhibitions is making me quite jealous!

Hi Sue,

Not really state of the art vlogging, but HERE is how I stretch wrapping paper.

Cool!! Thanks so much for that! I'm off to have a go!!!. Did you prime the paper pre-acrylic at all or did the oil pastels do that job?

By the way..that vlog was extremely good.

I don't bother priming with these prep studies. A very light oil pastel did help the acrylic keep damp longer.

Glad you enjoyed it.
