Thank you so much for sharing; I'm looking forward to reading more step-by-step posts. Question: what brand of brushes have you settled on, since your favorites were discontinued (you mentioned on your website)? I am trying to find something that isn't as stiff as a hog bristle, but with enough spring to hold it's shape when I'm painting.<br />Thanks again--MarjieUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02786523469164870045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-580046057436724567.post-16440617418088468232016-06-02T13:26:30.525-05:002016-06-02T13:26:30.525-05:00Thank you, everyone, for your comments!

I wish I understood photoshop as being able to create your own photo reference like that would be so much easier than trying to piece together bits from different photos which I currently find myself doing!
