| Gina, Read your post about the one stroke painting. I
had seen Donna Dewberry on PBS a couple weekends ago and was really interested in her painting. Yesterday, at Walmart I bought a video, Basic Strokes, and a book and some brushes. I have always bought cheap brushes , but I thought if I was going to try to learn I would invest in the good brushes. I have put it all away until after Christmas or I will not get any of my Christmas stuff done. I think one of the secrets is loading the brush right and also practice, practice, practice. I am really anxious to get started. I will have to get a couple of the work sheets to practice on. Walmart did not have the ones that go with the video. I am going to try to order them on line. Thanks for the encouragement. JOY |
