SNIP SNIP SNIP

New $9.95 Instant Video Project

This ancient pair of garden shears make a fantastic painting subject. Years of wear and tear plus numerous adjustments, to make them as comfortable as they are practical, have given them a character way beyond their original appearance.

Join me in capturing that character using just three colors and a handful of brushes, pens and pencils.

The great thing about this project is the fact that so few materials are needed and the results are surprisingly detailed and emotive.
