Apart from silkscreening I’m glad that I finally got the chance to do what I really wanted to do on my holidays. I’m guessing if I could make one of these per weekend I would be on my way to mass production mode :) HAHHAAH. Nono, I’m extremely happy with how this turned out - it’s still in process, but I’m really liking the whole movement area at the bottom. I spent most of the day outside… and the weather was just perfect for painting :)
