    I watched it all.
    What a great effort in putting that together, Gary.

    You get a Gold for this one.

    Excellent tutorial Gary. Thought I'd put a spin on it & trace the glass jar using named colours

    Cheers Maya. Here's a link to some great narrow boat art . Great rendering. Only comment I'd make is the floral pattern looks wrong in the reflection.

    Egg: That's a couple of great creations. The Glass jars look excellent, and I love the decorations on your watering cans.
    Maya: To say that your drawing looks accurate, is a bit of an understatement! wonderful work.

    Some very nice work here.

    Maya: that is wonderful.
    Egg: Those painted cans a really nice
    Stygg: yours looks nice too.

    Here is mine the first one Is the can just as is and the second one I distressed the watering can it's got worn paint, a bit of rust, a couple of dents and a smudge of dirt. It's now a vintage shabby chic piece that collectors will pay big bucks for!

    Thanks for the compliment Francis but I've not posted trace image yet, I will attempt the trace as soon as my guests return home to Greece. Perhaps I should trace a Greek urn I like your images Francis, especially the distressed one.
