What I have Learned so far

A Flat Brush Lesson

coaching lessons are happening in the studio and on line. One tip for anybody getting used to a new brush is to use it to sign your name about 10 times. Yup...first and last name...the longer the better. It will force you to use the brush in different ways . You will learn to load it and turn it to make stops and starts of short and longer marks.


What I have learned so far:
Working on using limited strokes makes my brushstrokes more confident. I also have found after painting flowers for a month I only want to paint mammals or things with eyes that can look back at me.
