Linda Paul, an artist out of Colorado, applies plaster to her canvas and the sculpts her painting from that, creating a 3D bas relief. She then paints it with egg based tempura paints, using pigments she grinds herself. I believe you mean TEMPERA (TEMPera) as opposed to TEMPURA (temPURa) Tis much easier to paint with Tempera rather than Japanese batter.. :^) Although, I'm sure Rael has some monkish chronicle of such an escapade. George, delurking for a moment. Is it chile time yet?
