the journey continues...

so this is my latest update. i finished layering the blue, but i thought it looked too solid and my sister agreed that it needed something to break it up. i was always going to break it up, but i didn't know how, whether i just varied the tone of blue, or put an effect on it. i decided to sponge paint it. thats when you get a dry sponge and u dip it in the paint and blot it on. i hadn't done this before, so i guess i learnt throug practice. i probably blotted it on a bit think at first, but yeah, through practise and layering, i became happy with my outcome. after that i blotted the bottom bits of the stool a darker blue. i thought this would just look cooler, you know, create interest and what not. im going to paint more on the legs, like reeds and a sea bed maybe, you know, with sand and coral. i'll keep thinking on that one.
so this is my little work station!!

these are the legs up close.


i'll keep u posted!
