365/2013 - Day 94

back to carving again

Today I tried carving some small circles to use to make the billion dots in the sugar glider-creature's design.  I also (from a suggestion by Leann) tried making teensy stencils by using a paper punch and the stiff part of a self-laminating pouch.



and then....painting

Tonight I tried them out...as well as a flat rounded sponge brush, and the eraser end of a pencil.


nope
nope
nuh-uh
not this either
yeah...no

What I ended up using was a broken in half cotton swab.





Tomorrow I will go back in and tidy up some of the rougher dots.  And so begins the journey of adding bout fifty billion dots to this painted plaster cloth surface!
