unfortunately i do not have a scanner to scan my
portfolio at this time , but hopefully i can get that
rectified in before the year is out. thanks for your
interest. i have been working on watercolours for the last
half year and i am still not satisfied with what i
have done lately
A couple of years ago Michaels had some tiny
frosted glass lamps (about 8" in height)and I bought
quite a few of them. I also found a spot on the
internet to purchase them but now I can't find them any
more. I've uploaded a couple of pictures of the ones
I've painted. They hold a tea light.<br><br>Does
anyone know where I can purchase these?<br><br>Sandra
Hi! I've just joined this club and would love to get ideas from other members on
decorative painting. I'm interested in techniques on painting on candles. Any
info would be appreciated. Thanx! K.
I would like to take this opportunity to
introduce myself to your membership and have set up a
website for their viewing. I hope your members will take
a few minutes to go there and learn a little about
me, as well as introducing themselves, individually
to me.<br><br>My site is:

Hello all!<br><br>I am new to this club, and I
have a question for all you watercolor painters out
there:<br><br>I have just purchased some brown tape to "stretch"
my watercolor paper. The only problem is, I have no

please tell me how to do this? I am eager to start

Hi! Glad to find this club. Have been doing
decorative painting for 5 years. Presently trying painting
on candles. Using DecoArt Candle Medium, following
their directions and having poor results. So tried this
- 1) sprayed with Krylon - (took days to dry) 2)
applied candle medium to entire candle - (did not cover
well) 3) applied paint. Result not great. Any
suggestions? Thanks, mowbs.
hi dani, sorry but i can't make the 9:00 chat tonight as my schedule has
changed...next week would be better, can any other members make it for a chat
next week also?
Has anyone taken lessons for tole or watercolour? I've taken a couple for tole
painting...looking for some good hints on shading properly with side loaded
brushes.
Hi all: Here is a great painting supply website
for books, patterns and supplies. What is really nice
about it is that you can look inside at the pages of
any books that you might want to order.
www.artistsclub.com It is in american currency but the prices for
books are quite reasonable.<br><br>Reno
Welcome to the new members. I just wanted to let
everyone know that there will be a chat Tuesday night at
9:30 P.M I hope that is a good time and if not let me
know and we can do it another time. <br> thanks, Dana
Hi everyone: my faourite painting projects are
anything to do with Christmas or Snowmen. My very faourite
are snowmen candlesticks. They are gorgeous. they
were in an old issue of Decorative Woodcrafts - which
no longer is printed. I go through stages of
painting - sometimes I go for a month or more without
painting. Reno
Hi there I'd like to know what your favourite
project has been and also your least favourite . my
favourite was the nativity scene I did and it was from Pat
Olsen. my least favourite was a christmas puzzle idid
and it is my least favourite because it took so long
to do. there were also so many little details.
aafter that project was done I didn't paint for a year.
Dana
Hi Dana: I have been painting for ten years. I do
tole and decorative painting for myself and I also
supply 2 craft shops in my area. I also work 40+ hours a
week as a Chemical Technologist within Kraft Foods
Canada, with 2 children and a soon to be new, wonderful
husband my time is limited but everyone at home supports
my tole painting interest. I took painting lessons
for 3 years and I love painting Christmas items. I'm
also new to this chat stuff. ttyl<br>Reno

Hi! I'd like to welcome everyone to the club.
What is everyone up to with their painting? I'm busy
trying to finish old projects so I can start on my
Christmas painting. And I'm going to try and sell some of
my things this fall. Well that's all for now. Dana
Hi everyone , I'd like to start having regular
chat times so if you could post when a good time for
you would be then i could set it up. Also, feel free

projects. Dana
