Learning

I've met a fascinating woman who knows so much about painting techniques. I sat down with her as she taught me how to hold my brush to get more of a glaze effect. I think I can use this information on some of the paintings I got commissioned to do. Speaking of paintings, the work is going slow, I hope to finish them within three simdays.

Shopping

Carmela sent me out this simday with a shopping list miles long. Fresh produce, fresh honey, fresh fish! Aghh! I don't know how to chose these things. I gave the list to Grex-the owner of The Farmer's Market and he helped me pick out everything. I think he led me to the expensive items, but I didn't care, I simply wanted to get home and finish working on my paintings. I have two commissioned pieces from the Sweeny family and one in a series of three that I am working on.
