Took a break this week

Well I painted every day for for 41 days...needed to get out a bit and digest all that I have learned...take inventory of my supplies  .... Clean out brush cleaner jar.... and oil medium container of paint residue .... find a place to let  my paintings dry undisturbed ....that is better than on my kitchen table...and some kind of storage for the dry ones.  All my work is 6x6 inches ... Sold one painting during the 41 days...I am waiting for it to dry completely before shipping it to buyer.

5 things I have learned today:

Parts of a painting seem dry but, I can be easily fooled.
Looking for a 6x6 size frame has to be ordered... Hard to find!
Being careless with brush cleaning fluids will wreck havoc on my hands.
I prefer long handle brushes to keep me from over-working and fussing too much.
I can use any color for a subject as long as the value is correct.
