Have you tried hitting CTL plus while you are on my blog? That might help the print get larger.Meredith Adlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15527906823778153381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5322451671253623460.post-74049312172061159102014-01-10T09:02:13.359-05:002014-01-10T09:02:13.359-05:00I love all the work you have posted recently but s...I love all the work you have posted recently but something happened and I cannot enlarge the print large enough that I can see it to read and type.

I do have a suggestion... start thinner... dries faster and then put on the thick colors... I have scraped off oils and worked over even when it was slightly tacky!!!

It always helps. I have to discipline myself to do it more. There is something about getting stuck and me not accepting "stepping away". I <br />am thinking more about process in my life verses goals and that has helped a lot.<br />Meredith this is a gorgeous painting. Are these the Blue Ridge Mountains you are looking at?<br />My sister lives very close to Elk Mountain.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12666735270675787643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5322451671253623460.post-37844103412620890432014-01-09T08:13:16.892-05:002014-01-09T08:13:16.892-05:00There's an old florist saying, since I'm a...There's an old florist saying, since I'm an old florist, it takes two florists to make an arrangement, one to put the flowers in and one to tell you to stop. Same thing hold true for artists, but, and this is a pretty big but, they probably both shouldn't be running around in your head at the same time. Hehe! I have lots of conversations with myself, usually starting with, "why did you start this in the first place?"Sharon L.

But now that I am playing with a palette knife, the paint is dangerously thick and wet.

(until tomorrow)<br />A part of me wishes I could do oil painting. But I am way too impatient. I can just imagine how messy it would be between me and my cats! I love watercolors because they dry so fast. <br />mimi boothbyhttp://mimitabby.comnoreply@blogger.com
