Title: After Pix, Out Of The Paint Shop
Post by: Tim Crosby on March 24, 2020, 12:24:33 AM

 Carla took some time with this one mostly drying times between coats of fixer. A lot of Pix but I could not figure out which ones show it best and I don't think any of them do, in hand is the only way to look at it.
 It is needless to say that her painting skills dwarf my horn work. I think it has gone from a functional piece to a piece of Art.

What media did she use, Tim?

 This one is water color sealed with a UV archival matte varnish.
