    Beautiful work Linda . I bought some acrylics last week , opened the box and shut it again . I haven’t a clue how to use them . I think I will stick to watercolours ha ha .

  • Linda Callaghan replied

    Hi Irene..you can use acrylics like watercolours too, thinly or thickly like oils. I use them as they are not a smelly as oils…still like watercolours tho. but my tubes tend to dry on the end and I end up cutting them and getting in a right mess! thanks for comenting!

    You have no idea how funny that just sounded to me Linda.

    I have been busy for 2 months painting and decorating every room in my house . . . there has hardly been an hour in all that time when I haven’t had a paint brush in my hand. LOL

  • Linda Callaghan replied

    ha ha that was funny….. lol….hope the house painting is nearly finished …best wishes to you
