Carol,

I think you may really enjoy working large. I love it. I typically work 30x40 or larger. My current project is 30x56. A very small painting for me is 20x24.

Like you I find that paint gets everywhere. I think it is the result of larger brushes and heavier paint loads coupled with a more dynamic style as one works to cover a larger area. it is not in my nature to have slow stokes so I just allow a little extra time for area cleanup. I do like a clean work space.

Looking forward to pictures of the WIP.
