Recently, I was a bit distracted as I grabbed my Acrylic Matte Varnish to finish up a piece and didn't realize that I had actually grabbed Gesso until I squeezed some of it onto my painting. You've never seen anyone grab paper towels and water quicker. Thankfully, I was able to get all the gesso off before it had set. No harm done, except the raising of the heart rate and blood pressure...<br /><br />I like your studio space. It's nice seeing your works hanging together on the wall. Inspiring.<br /><br />Happy Creating,<br /><br />-Don-Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17549962962379079880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449698803200850980.post-71512709063231016892010-09-26T18:33:29.322-07:002010-09-26T18:33:29.322-07:00How funny!
