Greek Steps - Finished
We scattered a few more petals and rocks about to mess it up - it was looking a little too orchestrated. I ended up repainting the two pots in the background as they were looking very flat. I gave them more shadow and highlight. As we used a palette knife for this painting, I might wait for about 6 months before I varnish it. You want to make sure the paint is dry before you varnish - I usually wait about 3 months but it depends on how thick the paint is.
