I gravitate to 14 x 12 as I bought a batch cheap on painting day #1 and have made it my standard(ish) I'm on painting #34 now. Are you still keeping count of your oil paintings?<br /><br />Great news on the corporate commission, congratulations and give yourself a double Huzzah! I love it when my friends are doing well ... gives me a reason to whistle happy tunes!!<br /><br />Gatepost productionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18061920423331681586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320847148928421544.post-1227119943323523522013-08-18T07:36:27.932-07:002013-08-18T07:36:27.932-07:00That was sposed to be "a need for"...sor...That was sposed to be "a need for"...sorry!suzanneberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13702748663139114422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-320847148928421544.post-3483746933006100622013-08-18T07:35:07.300-07:002013-08-18T07:35:07.300-07:00amazing as always my friend!
