The orb is progressing! I was a good girl and got to the studio at 8:30 this morning... I surprise even myself sometimes. So far I'm working this painting looser than I'm used to and I like it.
I have decided to abandon the idea of working on stretched paper... my latest attempts didn't work out so well either and after doing some research, I think my mistake was to soak the paper for too long. I will work on the paper anyway and cut it off the frame when I'm done.
Well, it's still early so got lots of time to work... cheers!
