Follow along as I give you my step-by-step instruction.

And don’t forget that if you haven’t already watched my free video lesson - Eight Tips to Avoid Overworking your Painting - it is still available for free. In it, I give you my advice on solving a big problem that I had in the beginning of my painting journey - overworking your painting.
