    That turned out fantastic, Joe.
    Did you enjoy doing the bagging?
    The effect is perfect.
    Love….Jill

    Thanks again everyone!!! 🙂

    Jill, the bagging went great and was a perfect addition to the piece. (It hardly takes any time at all) It also helped to level the paint…..no brush strokes!!!!! Working wet on wet was the solution.

    Joe,
