As a way of spurring me on a friend have convinced me to enter Wyrds Halloween painting competition. Only problem is I’m crap. I’ve won a Golden Button but I’m all style and no talent.
So with that in mind I plan to play into, and paint Mcmorning in Black and white in a hommarge to the great Universal horror films
Only thing is, I don’t know how to do it. So if anyone has any experience with this please let me know as I don’t know where to begin.
