Folks are getting this for free! Thank goodness we are all so unique and have different ideas and tastes. Something for everyone out there. You are such a great teacher and I appreciate you taking your time to think these processes and visuals out to relay them to us. Thanks also for your tip on the sore hand too. Think I am going to have to go that route. I have lots of old rags to start with.

I copied your post to start the exercises and then, just to loose the tension, I made 2 quick watercolour paintings. See what you done, you made me forget about everything else and have fun :) Tomorrow, I will start doing some exercises.<br />Thank you so much Julie for such a kind and generous help!! Oh, and I love the mushing painting!<br />Hugs and Smiles.
