Step by step

One more step, with Nancy's supervision - detailing the grasses and pond, then adding the flowers to tempt the butterflies.
When this layer dries, I have the joy of making the butterflies the stars of this meadow.

The Yellow Daisy is finished, varnished and wired. Same with the Moonshot #1, #2 amd #3, but #4 needs a little fix. The Moonshots #5 and #6 have been destroyed by the artist as unsalvageable because of varnish problems.
I might try a few more Moonshots as they are fun to do, and I have learned my lesson about varnish - use the right kind!
