    Delighted our chain of madness is being extended :D

    So, with all these extra links in the chain do you reckon:

    A. This might actually go almost full circle so that the final masterpiece vaguely resembles the original.

    or

    B. This is going to go soooooo far off on tangents and diversions that the final masterpiece will be full Jackson Pollock whereas the original is Rembrandt.

    It did occur to me today to recommend the toothbrush splatter method of painting to someone - can't remember why I thought that, but it might be prophetic, maybe??

    It might be difficult to work toothbrush spatter into the translation of the description though :D

    Any idea when I'll be painting so, lads? I'll need to time my tablets right so I can get a good splatter effect on the whiteboard.

    It's already been decided. H2 is painting, and I'm eating the 48 pack of Senokot my roommate left behind when she moved out.
