It’s a bell I weather tested the oil primer and oil paints painted on the oil primer. They hung for 6 months outside so they went from 2 inches of snow to 115 degrees and with no problems.

PaintingStarting a new 8 x 10 today
I going to put down the brushes.
PaintingI’m going to put down my brushes now. I don’t know about this painting it’s not speaking to me. I like 8 x 10 oil paintings because I can work thru different problem quickly. I used only white, black and Indian yellow oil paints. I’m going to try the same photo on a larger canvas. 
Ok the mist is in
PaintingI still have some highlights to do. Here’s before and after
