Size really does matter:
The lovely Avon
wanted a large painting as part of her Christmas décor. I was commissioned for
the task mostly because I work cheap. I had a large frame and decided to make
the painting fit the frame (first mistake). This thing has turned out to be
over 4 times the size I normally work. A painting goes through alternating
stages of “it’s gonna be okay” and “I hate it”. So far the “I hate its” are
winning, but I can’t give up and Christmas is getting closer. There is so much
canvas to cover that I’m running out of paint and my brushes are all too small.
I’m considering changing the theme to a full-blown blizzard scene with one lost
red nosed reindeer. Actually, all you will see is the nose and I can do the
rest with white house paint and a roller. Hope she likes it. Did I mention that
this is a big boy painting?
