Sunday in the Studio

It's Sunday and that means it's a day for me to learn something new in the studio. Today I watched a YouTube video by Ian Goldsmith who taught me how to prepare panels for oil painting. My wonderful hubby got on board too, and he cut 9 panels for me and I spent some time preparing them for painting. 

It was a big job, but well worth the effort. I have already sketched out 2 new paintings and I am enjoying the smooth surface already. I usually paint on canvas so painting on panels is a new approach for me. 

​Did you learn something new today?
