The Windmill

LoriEC 26 Feb 2021

Been wanting to do this for awhile and decided it was time. A fun painting to do. I agree with Voy though about getting the fan brush to do what Bob’s did. Had a little trouble with the light color wanting to mix with my under color. Had to thin quite a bit. In the end I am very happy with the result. Did add some life to my “ happy little tree” by the house. Just seemed like it needed it.

Nice job! I haven't braved this one yet. The windmill scares me! Yours looks awesome.

Nice windmill!!

Thank you doggymommie8301 and Boof. The windmill was indeed a challenge for me. I actually used the end of my liner brush to scratch in the upper circle like Bob showed to do and did the same for the legs. Really helped keep my lines straight. The rest was pretty easy once I had the frame. I also decided on doing one paddle rather than two. It was fun seeing it come together.

Nice windmill!!

Thank you, JoJo! I had a grand time painting this one!
