Actually, Garth, I was thinking, self-deprecatingly, that you put on much more decisive shapes of color and therefore got a more sculptural quality more quickly. Although you put in less detail, the illusion was solid. I think I normally build up my illusion over several days of painting. The first coat was much thinner than yours, and since we had only two hours i had to build on that coat of paint rather than putting down another coat the next day and creating a more solid foundation. As a result, I got farther along but the paint quality was rather ephemeral, not as solid as I would have liked.
