Have to wait until it dries before I can wrestle it further.



Many thanks.

5. Hey, thanks.
It's always a puzzle when you have been looking at something so hard whether other people even know what the hell it is you're trying to do.

Gracias.

10. Stainless-steel paper-towel dispenser
In a small bathroom of a non-restaraunt business, probably independently owned and operated. Maybe a bookstore?

About, hmmm, 20 years old or so.

And I thought of all of this before I scrolled down. You've go it down.

You're a man of many talents.

So, what's an "underpainting"?

28. Oh, it's the first layer of paint you lay down on a canvas before
punching the painting up with highlights and glazes of color.

Thanks, Paul.

Also correct is Petunialia who says it's "an aerial view of an abandoned food cart/trailer, in the early morning desert sun."

39. It was supposed to be.
I was just wondering if it was. Yet. I do intend to work it until it is quite obvious. Painfully painfully obvious.

I'm glad you maybe thought it was obvious.
