I have not been doing much artistically this week because of illness, crazy weather, and general busy-ness, but I have been plugging along at my mom's paisley. I'm pleased with how it is coming together. One thing I learned is that in a work this size you have to either pick colors you have lots of, or pick lots of colors. Since I am doing this with eight colors, some of which they do not carry in open stock at the local stores, I went to Dick Blick and stocked up on the ones I needed: Chocolate, Tuscan Red, and Dark Green. The other colors I either have some extras of, or they carry at Hobby Lobby: Indigo Blue, Copenhagen Blue, Metallic Gold, Metallic Silver, Metallic Copper. I hope now I have enough to finish this puppy!
