The Badger Blender

How can you blend and shade well if you don’t hold this brush correctly?

This is the biggest thing people get wrong when they use a badger blender (the big flat one: not the small round one). They hold it delicately. They hold it as if it were a feather duster.

Badger Escapes in the Palace of Westminster

Last Tuesday, we had a successful meeting with the tycoon whose vast mansion lies on one of the nicer London hills.

He agreed to our full-sized designs for the 16 stained glass panels we are to make for the skylights in his dining room.

Afterwards, and a little south of the tycoon’s Soho office, David and I were taken on a private tour of the Houses of Parliament.
