[Woodcarver] Painting

[Donna Menke]

I had a similar use for old half-finished carvings. I'll use them in my classes as bases for demoing different techniques and effects. Some of them are 10 years old- but if I decided to finish them sometime I would just carve away the paint or paint over it.

  Dan,

   

       Just as a suggestion; Make up a bunch of 
  little simple carvings you dash off quickly.

  Then, once you've got them experiment with the various techniques 
  suggested until you

  find 
  the one for you. It won't HURT when one gets ruined cause you won't have too 
  much

  invested but the wood will have been carved so you'll see the different 
  effects.

    I would like to thank everyone who helped me 
    with your input on the painting thread. I am definately going to try my hand 
    at painting again with the helpful tips you all gave me. Hopefully I'll be 
    able to master it. Practice makes perfect they say. Also, a big thank you to 
    Bill for this List. I glean a lot of helpful hints from it. I am pretty much 
    a lurker on the list but maybe I'll be able to post a few pics when I think 
    I'm getting the hang of the painting thing. Thanks again! Dan 
    Myers
