I really like it ...Wow! What a beautiful project! I really like it when you outline things. It causes them to pop, but I don't think this needs it. You may also want to ask Julia. I remember you talking about how she can identify that Kristin Nicholas look!<br /><br />I have a different question. I know that you like a more worn patina. Will you leave the floor "as is" and let it wear or will you do any type of varnish or stuff to protect it?Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17909075033888192017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-90442246649192455832016-06-17T03:40:03.631-04:002016-06-17T03:40:03.631-04:00I vote for lines.I vote for lines.Peggynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-41002026030578101842016-06-17T01:53:46.102-04:002016-06-17T01:53:46.102-04:00hmm... Outlining... Difficult decision. However, i...hmm... Outlining... Difficult decision. However, if you decide to, go with a NAVY/COBALT/[dark INDIGO] instead of black. Or, perhaps a blue-ish CRIMSON..? You know, a black-cherry-ish tone. -- As nice as they are, all of those colours seem to carry the same tonal "temperature"... A shot of NAVY would pop them out.<br />Think GAUGUIN..? [the Polynesian stuff]<br /><br />Actually, maybe swap out that lavender for the navy. As much as I love the "purples", THAT shade against those coral-ish colours just isn't "doing it" for *ME*. [*MY* "bad" and '60s-Flashbacks!] ;-}<br /><br />Then again, it IS the GARDEN Shed "floor"... That, will likely be covered in soil eventually any way! So, it's all probably a moot point in the end.<br /><br />Now, if we were talkin' "YARN"... well. That's a whole OTHER spectrum of "opinion"!<br />:-D<br />Auntie Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300073760215969631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-5003793932546997062016-06-17T00:40:10.657-04:002016-06-17T00:40:10.657-04:00Looking at it makes me smile.

I've done Bauernmalerie painting and it can get pretty detailed,but sometimes that over the top looks just right. Or as my mother-in-law used to say "Laudi how guadi."
