Hi Elfrida - now you've lost me there! - has part of your comment been cut off? Which tech questions do you mean? It's true that this forum is pretty big - I guess I don't know half the features available! If you wanted to ask me some questions, I'm more than happy to respond! Look forward to hearing from ya'...

Hi jon, 

There are so many locations on this painting site. I have some tech questions. What is the purpose of having a list of friends? Quite often I ask questions and maybe someone answers them but I wouldn't know where to find that answer?

Hi, Pauline, thanks! I found the acrylic surface to be very thin - I'm going back over it with oils. I keep overshooting - i'.e. it's OK and I try and make it better and mess up. Boy, I'm using huge amounts of paint!

Super reflections, very nice painting indeed:-))

Thanks Patricia and Debbie. Maybe too realistic - I'm thinking of it as a jumping off point. Just like for the chickens, I couldn't find a composition that suited me. I would rather do closer ups than 'panaromas' (I think?)
