To mask or not to mask? I used masking fluid (which I don’t often use) to block out the light areas for this painting but ended up with very hard paint edges that I really don’t like. I also got a bit lost with the hair. I paint so rarely these days that I feel like I’ve lost a lot of my skills. Guess that means I need to paint more.
I love drawing things. These days I am rarely found without a pen, pencil or stylus in my hands. In my working life I spend a lot of time in meetings and classrooms, reading papers and strategies, so my home life provides a creative antidote to all that! I also have chronic pain, lots of it. I have scoliosis, fibromyalgia and CRPS, so my life is a balancing act, trying to balance work, which make me feel part of the real world, with pain, which is ever present, and art, which soothes my pain.
