Interesting Matisse motif backgound Dor.  Like how you have got a more geometeric feel to you oranges.  Not a photoshoper so not sure if thats whats happening here but has a mdern feel to it. Great to see someone stretchng their boundaries this wll definitely lead to new discoveries and strengthen your work. Well done.

Hi Kay

I use Artisan brand WMO  (some of it is very stiff) and  Walnut Oil,  I purchase oil from Amazon.com.  I only use water for clean up. Happy painting Kay.......dor:))

You have some good refelections in the jug. I use WMO as well and usually just don't use any medium but this time used some safflower oil. I cut the painting back where I used to much medium and started again. What medium do you use?

My painting was done on canvas paper and that is in the garbage all crinkled up!  I have a very old copy of Photo Shop ( that was given to me) that I never learned to use.  I was addicted to Paint Shop Pro but now with a new computer PSP bit the dust!  Also have Gimp, never learned to use it either..........but I am slowly figuring out by trial and error how to use Photo Shop which is a much better program as you know.

Dor, I know you did not get it out of the garbage and glaze over it and I live to far away to come for coffee; so you must have a photo editor that you're using.  I think you are definitely on the right track.   Stu

That's definitely it and exactly what I meant.  I just sent my rework to you; yours is better.  How did you do it?  And what do you think?  Stu
