This is really awesome. You are very talented... I absolutely am obsessed work working with metallic colors . I have been doing alot of trees and flowers but never tried animals ...
Bakerboo Paints my ABSOLUTE number one favorite animal on planet earth is the AFRICAN elephant (to be specific). I have an enormous painting (print) of one in my living room and figurines throughout.
I totally agree re the African elephants!! Indian elephants are so meh... their ears and their back shape don't do it for me. I've just looked around my room and can see 7 elephants. One of them is a soft 'toy' elephant hand-made (not by me) out of my grandmother's wedding dress.
lol thanks Elly... and, by the way, thanks for being such a long-time loyal follower and commenter! It always makes me smile when I see your name pop up in my comments :-) I hope you'll enjoy the lion painting that I published today ;-) x
Thanks Jen - he's currently in a gallery exhibition! :-) Time elapsed was probably about 3 weeks, but actual hands-on working time was about 10 hours :-) x
Very nice Sarah. I'm enjoying watching videos from you again. I can't believe you got all of this down to 15 minutes!!! So 7 hours of gluing & painting ~ how many hours of editing?
Thanks Sherry! :-) Probably about 10 hours of work in total - there were some steps I didn't film, like the initial drawing, gesso, an extra coat of gold, the varnishing etc. Took me about 3 hours to edit, but half hour of that was getting all the clips in the right order lol :-) x
