The decision-making takes a bit of time but once the details are worked out it is time to start..... Take a look--this page will answer specific questions about commissions, if interested contact me [email protected] Now to begin: Step one: size is determined, panel is crafted and the wood/substrate must be primed.

As I prepare for this past weekend's workshop I always reflect on the tools I use and why. A lot of this reflection is to prepare me for the demonstration that is to come. How I can use the tools to help encourage the participants to experiment. One of the tools I use are pigment sticks. R&F is a brand I like a lot.
