I did an acrylic study years ago, based on a photo in the local newspaper. I never liked it well enough to show it to anyone, but I was still intrigued with the subject. So - when I came across it in and old pad of large watercolor sheets, there it was. A reminder of things that didn't measure up. I still had paints out on the work table, so grabbed up the palette knife again and made a new painting out of the old. these are acrylics, but I'm trying to mimic the look of an oil painting, just as I did with the cat. this is a mix of all kinds of paints from my stash. Craft paints, patio pains, glass paints, acrylics, whatever I'm trying to use up before they dry out. I started the renovation yesterday and finished this afternoon. Not that she's really finished. Maybe I'll let her sit another decade and then take another whack.

Very painterly, Janene. LOL over waiting another decade. Age does improve things, or one's take on it. I like it thus far...
