At Last! I Can See Again!

Well....It took a total of five weeks.  At last!  I can see the fine brushes and the strokes that they make.

I dug around and found a #0 and a #10/0.  I couldn't find my good 10/0.  I settled for second best.  It is really not a lot different from the #0 of the same brand.

Anyway, armed with one for green and one for red, I started doing the decorative painting on the windows.

I did a little red four petaled flower at the center top.  Then from there, I took the green and waved a stem down either side.

Then I went back and added little holly leaves here and there....No pattern.  Just a rough idea in my head.

Last, I went back in with the red and dotted berries here and there along both sides.

I am thinking that it would be easier if I just carved an eraser stamp for the leaves and did toothpick painting for the berries and flower.

One down and two more to go.

I got bored with that and decided to do Santa's chair.  It's one of those black Chrisnbon kit rockers.  I should say it was....It's now white.

Again, I just winged it....Unfortunately, I miss calculated and had to compensate at one end to make the design centered.

I need to go back over it with more red.  It looks kind of faded out.

I don't know where Tessie and Zar disappeared to.  Spike stole Zar's hat, so he is probably off looking for it.

I have to go finish the windows now.  I want those done and out of the way.  It sure is nice to be able to see again.

See you tomorrow.
