This is a new project - an end table with the famous painting on top of it.
I think i will try using shades and not colors for this one.
3/13: Done! I decided to draw Hokusai's self portrait. Next step is applying lacquer!!
3/9: Done! Now I will make the boats slightly darker and start thinking about the detail in the lower shelf (a small version of the mountain?)
3/8: I just finished the dark stripes and they are beautiful thanks to joy's advice!
Next step is adding a slightly lighter tone to the other stripes.
3/3: finished the shades and moving forward with the dark shades within the waves. If successful won't need to color the picture...
2/28: I just started the burning, and I am currently adding the shades around the waves' "fingers".
