My Journey - Day 20

Time is winding down - 25 days left. I'm really feeling good. Just waiting on paint to dry. I've also gotten into this habit of straddling my painting into sections. I know that liquin speeds up the drying time on a painting. So, the base color has a decent amount of liquin in it, and as I move to the next layer, I won't use as much. What this means ultimately, is that I'll put the base of something down in the morning, and with the ceiling fan running, by 8 p.m. it'll be dry to the touch and I can put on another layer. Ventilation is your best friend when painting.
