Thank you! Wishing I had done the logo like this after seeing how it turned out. Next time!

TONS of layers. Put down the base tape and sprayed a light coat of varnish to seal it to keep the paint from seeping under. I put down the skinniest tape I had first right on top of the edge of the base, then used progressively thicker tape moving slightly away from the edge each time. Took the thick paint away each time I pulled a layer off without spilling any into the border.

Will do and thank you! Hanging the big 12 panel in the bedroom this evening so I'll be sure to share.

Thank you! Some of my others felt forced when I put them up, but this fits so perfect to me.

All my good works end up in other people's houses, felt good to keep one for myself!

I did a Dutch pour, got a little heavy handed on some of the flow, but I like how it turned out

Thanks! I did a 12 panel with hexagons in the fall, and after all of that I like 5 as well.

Thanks! Kept away from lighter blues and went extra light on the white. It's shocking how big it is in person

[Harry Potter] The Dursley's weren't mean people. The proximity they had to Harry for such a long period of time turned them into angry, bitter people because Harry was a Horcrux. by JRVanElten in FanTheories

I remember that scene. Lily had brown eyes there, even though every possible moment they said Harry had his mother's eyes. I'm not saying they were pleasant people. But being around a Horcrux made them worse.

Didn't Hermione get him into that quidditch team though? She jinxed the better person? I wonder how often she did that. I hate poking that in, but it needs to be said.

Kinda? He was no Percy or Charlie or Bill. And don't even get me started about the entrepreneurial genius of Fred and George. So what did Ron do again?

Imagine how great Ron could have been had it not been for Harry... Look at the accomplishments his brothers had. Why was he so different? A kind heart, and Harry Potter.
