On Disappointments And Being Broke

so... i got the chore coat that i bought on ebay and

it REEKED of old funky mildew. i sure didn't expect

that! i contacted the seller and he offered to pay for 

dry cleaning. i thanked him but declined...i'm not a 

fan of wearing clothing soaked in chemicals...so he

did give me a partial refund..which was nice. i'm

chomping at the bit to begin my boro repairs but

i'm still washing and sunning the coat....sigh.

in the mean time:

i'm going to be playing with acrylic heat sealed collage!

i stumbled across some how to's in youtube land and

decided to give it a try. as usual...with a whole studio

of supplies i didn't have the products needed for this

process so i had to order the mediums. there's a

reason Golden begins with GOLD!!! thank goodness

i had a little birthday money.

and the playing begins...
