masking

I  started the first day with sketching for a painting, and tried to mask some detail with my new Daniel Smith artist masking fluid.  I thought I'd love it, with applicators to apply thin lines. Well, it did not turn out the way I've hoped, it came out either too thin or too thick. I ended up finishing with my old Winsor and Newton one. I will see how the painting goes with this.

Looking forward to seeing it, Jean. How frustrating with the new mask. Hope your next trial is more satisfying.

I love your pen and ink work!!!
Thank you for the smart water brush tip and demo at Goose Ridge Winery at a 2015 Urban Sketchers outing!

Bobi, The masking was terrible, but I am trying to finish the painting...My teacher Yi-Chien said *finish it, no matter what*. It's a learning, and I'll post it of course.
