I love staining pigments for this kind of painting where I need superdarks and vibrant colours at the same time, also they let you keep layering forever, the only con is that it's difficult to fade them to white in such a small painting since they are really intrusive pigments, that's why I've been working so slowly up till now until all the light areas were established, usually I prefer to fade those edges as I'm adding paint but this time I'll just have to blur them later.
Anyone wants a minicornetto? I'm taking one, as Ben Affleck said in that commercial because I worth it *yums!*

Dear Teresa,
Beautiful work!!! Very happy to know happy Teresa comes back with a sense of humour. You're right on a track! A bottle of champaign is too early...but a half glass of wineʚ(ˆ◡ˆ)ɞ
Cheers, Sadami
oooh bring it on Sadami, lets toast to the fun of carefree messing with paint and loving it! ʚ(ˆ3ˆ)ɞ
Teresa, this is wonderful, love the light shining through. Great darks, too.
Thanks Ann :) I want to finish it this weekend, hope those lights and darks end well defined and keep some beautiful midtones in between
