thumbs up Linseed oil thin layer not drying....

Dear Richard,
I greatly appreciate your feed back. To be very frank, I did not have much time with my GURU as I met him around 1991 as I was basically from Mumbai and in order to not to leave my owned apartment in place like Mumbai in vacant condition when we get a visa approval of our Green card, so we got rid of that apartment and moved to a smaller city - Ahmedabad. I was not so very happy to leave Mumbai but GOD might have different plans for me. Staying there for almost 2 and 1/2 years I did not know this GURU exists! And when I came to know about him and found out he was teaching exactly what I was looking for, I started learning from him starting January 1991 and in June 1992 I came to US.
He too do not have Computer access and or e-mail connection. So it is very difficult to communicate with him. Many a times I miss his expertise when I am stuck at certain point of my work.
He may have told me about the gray tones but I do not recollect. What you say is right. I do remember him telling me to use little blue tint in chin area while working on a male portrait, though!
I will try to apply as per your advice. Thanks again for your special time sparing for me. I will keep in touch with my latest work. Thanks again.
