    I get that skill from my old profession.
    I had to blend in new artwork,
    WITH! the "work" they already had on them.
    Tattooing that is...*
    So, this is great, I can let go of the fabric and when I come back it is still there, a person might not wait that long anymore.
    I may be slow...
    BUT I have the X-RAYs to prove my case. HA HA!


    Here is the fabric,
    I looked and looked for
    (found it)
    Can y'all see all of the possibilities I have got to go in.
    Dare to give your thinking on these two fabrics.
    Post your idea, before I finish the piece.
    Then we can see who was the closest in thinking the same as ME.


    Ray..

    This is just amazing to watch your progress!
    I paint in various mediums, and while I may see an area that a change or two might help, watching you do this just gives me a whole different perspective!
    I deeply admire your talent. While I can paint what I see........you are bringing an entire scene to life.
    Your work is fascinating and impressive!! Thanks SO much for sharing it! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
