Here is the first stage of a 'Clarsach' soundboard decoration that I started last week. As soon as I have the design traced on, I always feel very keen to get going with the paint. |
Here it is with the first coat of all the colours blocked-in. |
Inside my shed studio, with delicious music playing of course, I was toasty warm ... |
... whilst outside the shed - very cold. |
The finished design with several more coats of gold, bronze and silver plus burnt sienna for the dark brown edging. |
