Re: rough time
Sounds like a good move @outlander I am having a footy and cleaning afternoon. There are a few games on today that I have been or will be watching ...and doing little bits of cleaning in between.

Re: rough time
do you find it gets sticky? @Zoe7
After ive done the pour painting it sits for minimum a week before i varnish it but it doesnt seem to dry properly or something. its been ages since i varnished this piece and its like dry to the touch but if i keep ahold it of it feels like sticky or not dry properly, mums one she has hanging up was abit stuck to her wall as well.
any suggestions? i didnt use the spray varnish though so maybe it would be better to use spray instead

Re: rough time
Spray varnish gives a much even finish if you use it properly @outlander and it doesn't take asa long to dry.

Re: rough time
That is a beautiful white cat with an open expression. Expressions can be rich and contradictory. Is it looking up - adoring or looking up in fear ??The colours are a little lighter. I hope it is a sign you are feeling a little better @outlander but I dont want to presume. WHat did you think when you chose it?
