Tanked!

I had been doing a lot of thinking about what design I wanted to paint on my oil tank. I wanted a design that would be interesting and not fussy to paint. Although the designs I liked were kind of 60's-ish abstract I really wanted something organic, so I went through my stash again and found some fabric with a leaf design I liked.

I liked it because I could paint it easily freehand and it didn't have to be exact.

 I didn't want to paint the whole tank, but I did want to break up that vast expanse of white.

I have no trouble handling a brush and getting it to do what I want it to do.
 

It looked good, but the more time that passed made me realize that the paint I was using wasn't designed to stay where I put it, unlike artist oil paints which are generally stiffer than toothpaste.

Even though the design looked good when I painted it, a short time later, drips appeared.

I tried to wipe the drips with a rag, and almost made it worse. I have to decide how much touching up I want to do.

Because in the grand scheme of things, it looks fine.
