I ordered and am charged international shipping. Should have deleted the order until I learned the problem with the link. Oh well, hopefully it is as easy to apply as advertised. Thank you for the recommendation.
Your life is upside down with health scares and you still think of giving to others. I appreciate the kindness, Marc.
I hope your children continue to heal well.
Thank you for the oil primer recommendation. I found it in a nearby city and immediately ordered a can. It’s the first time being Canadian helped me access art supplies!
I can’t wait to try it. Like you, I’m sensitive to the surface under my brush and its effect on colour.
Hi Marc ... Merry Christmas to you and Dottie... and hopefully your children will recover the best possible. I will be praying for them. Thank you for the info on this primer. I have been purchasing linen panels that are oil primed. Your discussion about the primer you are using is very interesting because I occasionally paint on wood cradled panels that are not primed. I will share your post if you let me know I can do so, especially since it has personal "life" info, and you received the "okay" to share to other artists and I do not have that permission. No hurry. BTW... love the painting above!
Thanks for the tip! And I hope Dottie’s son gets better soon and your son somehow gets through his accident. Sounds horrific especially as a parent. Try to find some peace and hopefully the new year will be better. Hugs.
Merry Christmas and thank you for your timely post. It seems life quietly meanders on for awhile and you feel content and unaware of sudden tragedies. Then out of the blue, it hits your own family. I have been where you and Dottie are and it nearly broke me. It is a difficult time to fight your way through the chaos and the tears. You just hold on because there is no other choice but that. I believe in hope. I believe in faith and strength. Love will get you both through. It is a holy promise. Thank you for sharing your passion for art, your inner spirit and your humanity. One day at a time ~ it is the only way through.
Thanks for your good and generous gifts to us in this piece, Marc, both professional and personal. I hope both you and Dottie can find peace through renewed health of your sons.
I’m looking forward to trying the primer; I’ve used an Art Spectrum spray for pastels in the past. And you’re right: Dottie is a very good writer but so are you! (Take that from a retired English professor.) All the best to you and your families this Christmas.
❤️

As with Dottie, I wish your son a full recovery and peace to your family.
