Pepper's portrait has had a first light wash. Now that I've started, I'm hooked! Will tidy up the paints and let it rest 'til tomorrow. Thanks for the wee video. Muasdale looked bonnie. 
I've come over all silly-like.
Pepper portrait is calling to me ...it is such a pleasure to paint. Do wish my well-meaning father had agreed to let me go to art school. I'm sure I'd have made a splendid beatnik 
It took well over 50 years for me to buy a paintbox. Hey ho...funny old life!!!
soop treat yourself to black hairdye and really black eye make-up and lip-stick and you would make the hippiest beatnik going.
lol.
glamma...don't tempt me!
number Pepper in paint is beginning to look good. Will prop up my board, and throughout the evening, I shall make mental notes of any areas of his portrait that need special attention. Getting paint to behave in a proper fashion can be frustrating. It's all too easy to reach a point when the painting "works"...and then spoil it by over-working the detail. Anyway, come what may, you shall have as close to Pepper's likeness as I can manage.
number What am I doing on here? I've a picture to paint! But first, I'd better make the bed, wash the dishes, put the washing on the line, perc some coffee, blahdy blah...
Oooh, I just did my first smiley, couldn`t work out how to do `em before!
You live 'n' learn, number. I didn't know how to do lots of things until I joined GN
Pepper is having a final titivating with a paintbrush today. So, if you pm your address, number I shall pack and post ready for Monday's collection.
