PAINTING TIPS
n I did not paint the background in order to preserve the rustic nature of the surface. When you start to paint, please be careful to avoid the unsealed area.
n I used a combination of floating and stippling to create a smooth transition between the values of highlights and shadows. Add more of the lighter or darker colors to the previous value until you achieve the desired effect.
