24. I'm embarrassed to say I'd forgotten that cyberbullying caused your absence.

What a horrible thing to experience.

I'm sure you know this on one level, but truly, palette knife painting is as real and legitimate as painting with brushes, squeegees, Q-tips, or anything else an artist uses to apply the paint. Like any tool, the quality of the work depends on how it's used. You might enjoy looking at Mia Bergeron's work, since she frequently uses a palette knife: https://www.instagram.com/miabergeron/p/C3qON2mpoyQ/?img_index=1

Later today--maybe this evening?--I'll post one of my recent landscape paintings so you can see how I use a palette knife in conjunction with brushes.

Edited to add: here's a more recent palette knife painting by Mia Bergeron. Scroll through for progress shots. https://www.instagram.com/p/C-vQVVKpl5j/?img_index=1
