Hamo I was behind posting so while I rested I did catch up photos. I'm back to painting just as I was running out. I still have a sore throat that is hanging on, no fair because I'm not a smoker, and a bad cough, no fair I'm not a smoker! The photos today are the last I've done so I have to paint today to keep them coming.

Prikli Pear oh no, with comments like yours how can I ever retire from art! My ego would shrink to nothing.

Thank you both for a shot in the arm towards health and happiness. (Dan is doing a great job of caring for me too)

==========================================

Wish List #8 these photos of the Black Velvet painting for Stephen Seaton will catch me up to where I left off last night. It is not finished.

I have now blocked in the "bib" with the first layer of orange.

Now it was time to finish off the first layer of grey.

Now Tiki #3 (the first in line) has one layer completed. When dry it is time for the next one.

One the left the "bib" has two the right has one layer of paint.

Once the orange dried it was time to start on the second layer of grey on the rest of the body.

Two layers completed.

Time to start on layer number three.

Top to bottom three or more layers have been done. I also added a bamboo stick behind the middle tiki to add depth.

This last image shows where I have added more coats of grey and then blue shading. It helps make the nose even better 3D.

There are still more things to add before this painting is complete. Thank you for watching, Wendy
