I have some oils that I cannot use, maybe I should send them to you. They're just little tubes from a set. I also have some odorless thinner. Say the word and I'll send it.Sharon L.

Thank goodness there are acrylics, I would be painting with them if I couldn't tolerate the oils. I don't use a medium and very little Turpenoid and lucky for me I don't have a problem with them, yet anyway.Barbara Paskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236804963054766302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5963651911800801225.post-11664179497387835062011-10-18T18:27:42.246-04:002011-10-18T18:27:42.246-04:00Great post and so true, Sharon!Great post and so true, Sharon!Diane Hoeptnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124052826927571423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5963651911800801225.post-39613114574739636322011-10-18T00:57:48.844-04:002011-10-18T00:57:48.844-04:00Debra, I don't know why my response didn't...Debra, I don't know why my response didn't publish. So here it goes again. <br /><br />I took a composition class a year ago from Jerry Yarnell in Bardstown and a 2 day painting class. That's when I realized I could do this. <br /><br />Bardstown is a really cool town. I enjoyed it a lot. There were several shops I really liked, but what I really thought was neat, is that Bardstowh must be the only place in Ky. where there is that much gently rolling or nearly flat land. It is beautifulSharon L.

I might not be able to smell the low odor thinner, but I can feel them. I also like the dry time of acrylics. I can finish something, frame it, and ship it the same day. <br /><br />Had a great vacation. Needed it really badly.Sharon L.

I catch him on Saturday mornings on tv too, just can't understand why he mostly paints in acrylics, lol. Love my oils, lol. Sounds like a great vacation, glad you go away.Barbara Paskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236804963054766302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5963651911800801225.post-50251677653177283362011-10-17T06:20:42.776-04:002011-10-17T06:20:42.776-04:00How cool to read your post and find you visited my...How cool to read your post and find you visited my hometown...Bardstown!
