Yepee!
The glued copper sheet resisted the heat, the polymer clay wasn't over baked and still white :-)
I matched colors to the decor with my usual mix of watercolor pencils and permanent markers, then finished with a diamond glaze coat. (Tricky part, diamond glaze is water based...)
3 hours work achieved with a huge relief sigh!
My friend and I agreed to leave the other damages (upper part) untouched.
Just gave it back to her, she was amazed and truly delighted with the result :-D
Pascale, what a wonderful 400th post!
This is so beautiful before, and absolutely exquisite after your work on it!!
I'm sure you have made your friend very happy :-) such a lovely thing to be able to do for her:-) )
And here it is, revitalized & painting like new, you're amazing Pascale! Love this madonna & child picture, their facial expressions are beautiful
Ha, Judy and Jenni, you were so quick to pop up there!
I was really thrilled to have it in hands, and anxious not to mess with it...
My friend's joy upon unwrap was a delight!
