American Folk Art Crafty Tip

After washing your paint brush, hang it upside down by a clothes peg and it will thoroughly dry quicker. Then wrap it in a rag cloth with an elastic band around it, to keep it's shape and stop it from splaying.

After base painting, sand lightly with a piece of brown paper bag; this creates a smooth surface for adding detail work.
