Yes, pure joy is in finishing something challenging, right!?
I am thrilled by the result. This is quite large 76x76cm and I hadn’t painted that big in a long time (& only once before 😉
It’s been a journey, with Lynn Whipple’s fun online course ‘big bold blum’. I had many light bulb moment, most that were followed by huge doubts;)
My big bold blum canvas!
I was so happy when I finally knew how to finish my table and vase. I didn’t want to loose the looseness and marks; so I used some matte medium gel to create transparent layers. Finished with some pastels and graphite marks.




Happy moi!


I love it, simply beautiful!…..It helps to appreciate your painting when you include close-ups. 🙂
Thank you so much Margaret!!
