It's all go.
Talk about cutting it fine........I had a Pop Art portrait to complete and deliver to a lady who lived fairly close to Heartlands. There was just a small section of hair to finish off and I was absolutely deteremined to try and get it done so I could get it delivered today as it would save me an extra trip. So, at an unearthly time yesterday morning I set up my bits and cracked on. It took a cup of tea to get me fully awake and I did have to rub my eyes a couple of times to focus on the fiddly bits. By 8am he was done. I scurried around for my varnish, protective covering and bubble wrap and loaded these extra bits into the car. I managed to get him varnished during the lunchbreak of today's class and he was fully dry and ready to wrap and deliver by the time class ended - (which over ran a bit as my flipping clock stopped). By 3.30pm it was safely in the hands of the new owner and by 3.35pm it was hung on the wall. Before I left I had an order for more - my client wants to fill a recessed wall. They are going to look absolutely fabulous all grouped and hung together. Fingers crossed, we'll also get a portrait done of the family dog too
