I unwrapped the seahorse and drew the design on the blank. I noticed that the shape is slightly different on either side. Adjustments were made. It is more challenging to draw on a bumpy surface. 

I the drew over the pencil with a tipped nozzle bottle of black acrylic.  I thought it would work like a marker. Boy was I wrong. First, the thick paint drips ( see photo.) everywhere it's vertical. Then my hand especially my thumb hurt from squeezing it for three hour. We live and learn.


See the pictures of my first morning. have some glitches with this blog. look for pictures soon.
