Ive been laid off for the past month with no end in sight. Ive been using the extra time to work on paintings. This is a still life of my banjo. You can see more of them at my blog: [link]

Its just learning to keep it watered down and thin, and build up the tones with washes and letting them dry. So at first I'm working with like tinted water, up to a kool-aid like density, and finishing with straight out of the bottle paint for the darkest parts.
