Thank you, I used a new colour from a kind of hand spray for the skin tone, it was very good. It went on flat and no brush marks, of course I had to put under colour with a brush on first, but I like it, a new ideas. It was a skin care bottle with oil in it so had a different nozzle. It's called Fusions body oil great spray as it does not block. :grin: :grin: :8)

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 17/05/09, 23:32 reply
Thats great,is is an expensive spray?It's got a nice smooth creamy look to it. :thumbup: :thumbup: :8)

 brainfree - 18/05/09, 22:30 reply
The spray came with the Body oil, but it has a great nozzle and sprays very small bubbles, the skin paint mix is very light to. I do a brush coat then the spray just for the outer layer.

 tinydancer - 21/06/09, 11:40 reply
how do you get the paint so smooth??? even though i am more of a drawer at the moment because of my school studio art polio but id like to know?

 brainfree - 21/06/09, 18:40 reply
Thank you I think you like it, the tech stuff. First question well I have a small spray which was a body spray my four that just has the right droplet pattern. This is one of the ten I have used it on it seems to be better for darker skin. Normally I use a 1 cm brush with short hair and bleen it out it takes time so I wanted to expeiriment with a new way, alway try things it's the result that counts. I attend and art club and have a small bag which I carry my equipment in I can look like a dork if I was a young person I would not look cool! All of us draw some with paint some with a pencil I have been a drawer pencil for 50 years and a painted foe the last ten years, paint is best it takes gutts to change but it's worth it. First pencil draw for likeness training thern pastel work for colour and tone. Try everything, it's a great hobby and can become a living, Practice and ask questions. :grin:

 tinydancer - 21/06/09, 11:40 reply
oh and another question... :clap: how big is this?

 brainfree - 21/06/09, 18:42 reply

 brainfree - 29/06/09, 09:01 reply
Thank you, I like your Sean Paul watercolour, shkin tone is the next thing to learn both for black skin and White peoples. I think so long as you get the tone right any colour used is good it's more about the way we use it than what we use. I make a pallette of skin tone ranging from dark to light stat with the light the to dark. Remember it's always the drawing that counts good life likedrawing, makes great paintings. Your standard of both is improving with every painting. Keep up the good work I normally keep and eye on the watercolour group but because of my family problems I have been either busy or sad they are all over now but the mourning feeling is still with me. I never got on with my father, but I miss him even with me aged 62 sad. Anyway Keep going your work is excellent. :grin: :8)

Thank you, it's to be different to look for different without becoming to impressionist. I like my work to be seen and for people to know me from my thumbnails, small picture on the side of the screen. I'm glad you like it I will have to do another pop princess as I like to paint beauty. :grin: :8)
