Closeup of Shelli (Codfish Project) as of Apr. 27, 2018


This is Shelli, a codfish cutout that I am decorating.  Some 50 area artists are decorating these cutouts, to be auctioned in Marblehead Festival of Art's fundraiser.  This year, my fish will be decorated with a seashell pattern where you would expect to see scales.  Today I kept going with round two of painting the shells, making the gold lines thinner and the white areas larger. So far I have 10 rows done.  It is slow going, but worth it because it looks better.  There will still be lots of mistakes to fix, plus I need to do a second coat of the background.  To be continued. . . .
