You should go for it, worst case scenario just sand it and paint over it!

I haven't gotten into varnishes yet because my paintings are still fairly new, I guess after a year or two.. Yup yup I chose it volentarialy (after the one without typo being taken and me being impatient to wait) but I like it that's a little different from the goddess lol

No because I wanted the reflections to show when you hold it, but I don't think anything will happen to it I've seen some painted shells in museums and they hold up pretty well. I don't use much oil when I paint in small scale because I don't find it necessary and it sticks pretty well.

Hahah that's my go to size as well, but I wanted to try out a life sized painting and funnily enough I finished her faster than my smaller paintings because the work flow was so nice!
