All I did today was preparing materials for a weekend away in the country at an Art studio, where I hope to try some copying of nudes in oils. To this end, I gesso'ed some pieces of plywood and hardboard to prepare a surface for oil painting. Bundle up rags, bottle of turpentine and one of white spirit, selection of brushes and a palette and there, I think we're sorted. Oh, and mustn't forget, the tubes of paint and a roll of tissue and some drawing equipment and something to protect clothing: oils get everywhere!
If the results are any way worth seeing, I'll post them here when I get back!
Hope you had a good time. Looking forward to hearing about it.
