Why else would I be using a colander and food bags in my studio?
To select fine sawdust from the coarse stuff, that's why; and then to sprinkle it over the canvas to create a fabulously rough texture base to paint on.
Watch this space. It's further ahead than this now but it's killing me to have to wait for the next layer to dry!

I'm impatiently waiting. ;) Is it dry yet? What does it look like now? How did the paint go on?
Ah! With difficulty... the undercoat took ages to dry and now I've done some underpainting (with a brush and oils - lovely) which was also difficult and is also taking ages to dry! Another photo soon!
