I will have to wait to post the pic for this till tomorrow as I discovered I do not like the coloring I get when using artificial light (even though I have "daylight" bulbs in the studio). I got a new canvas for my birthday and have fallen in LOVE with the smooth finish and therefore the control I have with oils. I am thinking I might have to try to gesso some masonite and see if that gives the same texture/finish. I have always tried using Frederix canvas or canvas panels in the past and was never pleased with the amount of weave and how I had to work the paint in..... again, that is why I love this daily painting. Makes me use new materials and practice, practice, practice.
