Thread: Practice Payoff!!

I may have posted this once before, but I just finished speaking to this little girls mother & they would like another one just like it for an Auntie..On this one I used the Paasche with a #3 & it felt heavy right after starting, but I had to play my hand out..the one that I will start tomorrow I will use an eclipse & try to get a finer line. I remember thinking that if I ever did another one..I don't think I've ever done anything that I wouldn't do differently if I were to do it again..it's fairly large 24"x30" so it makes it a little easier, but it's plain to tell that I couldn't do it if I hadn't practiced..on something like this you pay close attention to the letter you're doing.. You can't look ahead, & it would be disasterous to think back..You make each letter as if it's the only one on the page--one after another..spacing is critical to the outcome too..I have the canvas primed & prepped & it's the 1st. job after morning coffee..

Wow !

Will I ever be able to write my own name like that.
That's the first goal. Projects like yours are way up the road yet.
