Today I started the process of getting my sketch on canvas. My hubby gave me a wonderful new gadget for my birthday...a mini projector! I took my beginning sketches and transfered them into the projector digitally, and projected them onto the canvas, where I then sketched in charcoal. I made a few changes to the position of the ducks, enlarged the rubber ducky for better effect, and bowed the legs of the duckling for a bit of whimsy and humor. Now I am ready to get the painting started! The hardest part of the whole process? Facing that white canvas! If I can only conquer that fear of not being perfect (which never happens anyway!) and just paint, I would be a much happier person. A new painting is terrifying! And wonderful! Crazy!! They are going to send me off to the looney bin one of these days....
