here's a secret -- at the hardware store you can buy giant drop cloth canvas for really cheap, then stretch over a frame (look it up on youtube) and prep by painting with a few coats of white gesso.
I have been practicing basic stuff. I know about using the freezer but i could not figure what to put the paint in. I do use baggies for brushes to keep the wet. I have a small freezer and your idea is perfect for me to save paint instead of tossing it like I have.
Your video reminded me of the first time I painted with oil paints in college and my instructor came up to me to point out I got some oil paint on my face. It was right about where yours is on your face in the video. LOL
I was also tickled by the fact you shared your sparkling lamp light effects with us too.
Ahhh, another church painting! Ettina, you have my full, undivided attention. Your opening with the disco ball lamp was so cool too. The secrets of your painting is a very nice touch too (this is like an art documentary video) - 5 star artistry!
she's so nice, thanks for the secret, I did not too...lol

I'm glad i watched your video. I love the idea of using the styro plate as a pallet. That's what I'll be doing. Thanks
