Great Video!! Learned a tremendous amount! Was just doing a Painting of a River Bank. Will help me a lot. Nice seeing you after some time.

[@jmlisondra]

thank you very much :)

[@debterry1007]

Thank you John. What timing! We are remodeling a house and i want a rock fireplace but the $$ is just not there yet. Right now the fireplace is just flat wood that i thought after sanding would be a great surface to paint on... I thought i would try to paint the rocks on. Big leap of faith here since i have very little to no experience painting rocks. Hopefully they won't look silly . I think you helped me out alot here. Thanks so much. Hugs! deb

[@jmlisondra]

You're welcome Deb. That's a great idea! Or you can add a little textures like adding some modeling paste as what IS 2 suggested. Or you may use permatix or classitix for the textures which a lot cheaper and you can find it on local hardwares. You can do the textures first before adding the paints.

[@debterry1007]

Thanks so much John and IS 2 .......Would you just put the texture on all over first then break it into individual stones or would you try to outline the stones you want first then add the texture? I'm nervous to do this can you tell?? lol But if i can even just get it close to right i think it will look awesome! :) Hugs! deb

[@jmlisondra]

Yes do the outline and texture first before painting...
