Here's what Bob has to say:
"I
have been using a several different surface techniques since the workshop,
Sandra, but not on board. I returned to my usual canvas background surface, and
begin each work with molding paste either stenciled on or usually spread with a
palette knife and "chopped" with one of several different-sized Bondo plastic
scrapers. I like to paint (or stain or dry brush) over this textured background
in each piece:
I
just can't (actually, don't want to) escape from my preference for
red-orange-yellow brights versus contrasting dark umbers / blacks! I also
prefer to use a gloss top coat on my work.
But
as you can see, the texturing I learned at the workshop is serving my personal
goals well.
