I am using Golden open acrylics on it now and a few mistakes have been fixed with your pose, thank you for that. I was thinking of that painting of the girl at the counter by Manet, cant remember the name just now. I loved all the tea and coffee making stuff that was on the table in front so that might feature a bit more strongly. It was a great day. Im not sure if anyone wants to go out saturday next, I might go to Castletown
