I'm so glad that you're going to try this! Sharon is a great guide, I can't wait to see your first piece. Be sure to thin the pastel ground enough; I didn't on this one and felt like I was brushing on cement. I used gesso first because I wanted the white background, probably did too much prep work as I also put a thin layer of acrylic on to tint it. Sharon, my acrylic has a very matte finish, it's actually an airbrush ink and works very well.

Jimmie, when are you going to try this??

Jean
