I was on Pinterest and it brought me to this page when I clicked on the Peacock. I am working on the Peacock – thank you for listing all the materials and giving an overview, this is very helpful. Thank you for bringing us all along on your Journey, Ginger and Jon. I watch the tutorials during the week, I have been following for quit sometime. I don’t say much on the chat, sometimes hello, I paint to help me with the loss of my husband and anxiety.
Marion, we are so pleased that you found us and that we can bring some peace to your days. Our goal is to teach the world to paint with acrylics one brush at a time!
Thank you so much for posting this completed version of the peacock, I have started it and cant wait to finish it. Thanks so much to you and #TheArtSherpa for your lessons.
