Nice job Kathy.I have found that when I use a blender I end up ruining the tooth of the paper, which prevents additional layers. But I have a heavy hand which I struggle with to overcome. I use OMS to move the pigment into the tooth so the paper does not show through. Saying that, the last couple of my drawings, such as the Rainbow Birds, I used no OMS or blending stick. Trying to use a light hand and add more layers, but the heavy hand still sneaks in.Doesn't it seem like there is so much to learn with CP? However cleanup is a breeze!
