Thanks so much, Louise. I love these shorter videos! I just received my first commission for a painting and after watching your videos I know it’s time to play, play, play and press into my own language with the paints and tools I have. I told them I would paint 3 canvases (in the size they requested,) in a series and they could pick one or none. I don’t want the pressure to please…and asked them to think on how they want the finished piece to make them “feel” when they see it each day.

Can I sand with sandpaper on a layered canvas? Or only on wood board? Obviously an orbital sander would rip canvas, but maybe not a fine sand paper? In order to show some of the bottom, under painting and layers? Has anyone tried this?

fantastic techniques and application! Love them all and can't wait to try... May I please ask where you found that circle stencil at the beginning of the video? (in the background)? I've been looking for an overlapping one forever! Thanks Louise❤
