Texture tools for large paintings ...

When we were in Asheville NC recently, we were treated to several hours in the studio with Jonas Gerard.  As a painter of very large pieces, he has assembled various tools to help him achieve texture on large spaces.  One of his tools was a scraper similar to these.  When pulled across paint, it leaves wonderful texture and lines, a way to show movement.  Today Roy made three such scrapers, different sizes and different shapes.  I am so looking forward to using them!  It is so nice that he totally believes I have extraordinary large works inside me, ready to put forth.  All "creatives" need someone like this.....
