Party Time


The balloons just floated off the paint brush. When I ordered my last set of supplies, I had them toss in a Sampler Tablet of various types of canvas materials. Each sheet is 6 x 8 and the pad includes two pieces of five different canvas surfaces. I never knew about such a variety of "canvases". The canvas used in the tarp for the boat is not the same as any of my samples. This piece of canvas is linen and not cotton duck. The boat tarp is neither. I also learned this week that the Mona Lisa is painted on a piece of wood. Who knew.

Wouldn't the wood crack or warp?

i like that one... makes me think of another option we can set up for you for a painting style. We could fill balloons with paint. Attach them to a canvas, and throw darts at them. They do that in the Princess Diaries movie... :)
