Leslie Gustafson
love it, love the colors! what is 3” chip?
Janis Zroback replied
Thanks so much Leslie…it’s a chip brush…made of hog hair, it costs less than 10.00 and it’s used by decorative painters, (I am also one of the breed :)) ) to base coat their projects/walls/floors/furniture, before starting the decorative work…I have them in many sizes, and I find that the oldder and more splayed out they are the better for all sorts of techniques…

This is lovely Janis; you’ve well portrayed the sense of movement by the wind.

Congratulations Janis,
Your beautiful painting “Landscape…Wild is the Wind” is
Featured in Impressionism Café !!
this is such a lovely painting, you have so excellently expressed in not only your composition, but also your colour palette and brushstrokes the beauty of the land and wind so clearly felt from the depths of the cool shaded base rising up flowing and sweeping to the highest reaches of the sky! it is just so magnificent where your painting leads the eyes!
Lovely work Janis
