finally back its been so long

 Hi everyone I have so missed the forum and reborning, its been a really long time. Had to deal with firstly loosing my brother, my dad and then mum. havent bought any new kits but I have about 30 or so I did keep a list thank heavens including eye sizes. I ordered some new ebook so hopefully I'll be able to start very soon. I hope my paints are ok just have to try them.   Good to be back

I hope it picks up I felt it was a great forum, any way I'm going to start again this week, my paints would probably be about the same. are classes still offered here ?

It has been awhile since the last class. Lara is working at least one job and doesn’t have much time with juggling her kids and dance competitions. eBooks are still available.

are you all using the genisus paints, I was just on April's site and she is doing eBooks with a dry paint. Have to many of the genisus paints and also just ordered another half a dozen. Why are they changing?

I am still using GHSP and I think the majority of artists are too. Some have switched to Air Dry and Pan Pastels are also being used to do shading, blushing, etc. At 73, I may be too old to learn any new tricks?

Think I'll stay with them also thanks for the reply

Welcome back Loretta! Glad to see you are reborning again.

Thank you glad to be back, just waiting of a few new paints and then I'am a go

Welcome back, it's sooo good to see you!

I'm glad you found my GHSP tutorial, I can't wait to see your WIP

I just came back too and see its been very quiet. Even on doll-fan. I have taken a LONGGGGGG break and don't even know whats going on anymore with the doll community. Even searching on Ebay just seems like a lot of chinese manufactured dolls. Don't know what happened.

Yep! China has caused a lot of trouble.. I don’t think REAL has enough activity to keep going. Bountiful Baby still has a lot of activity, but FaceBook seems to be the most active..
