FAQ
Q: What does Sorentaine mean?
A: Sorentaine is the name of one of my muses.
Q: What do you paint on/with?
A: For paintings, I prefer to paint with Windsor & Newton Oils on Clayboard
or pressed Masonite. For miniatures I use Liquitex Acrylics. For brushes, I
prefer to use Binder& Newton's Galleria series, or the Raphael line of brushes
my husband found for me. Bless his soul.
Q: How long does it take?
A: What take??? Basic miniatures start at 10-15 hours a piece. The paintings
I'm not really sure, as I don't keep track. Suffice to say however they take
significantly longer.
Q: What are those black and red squiggle design-things?
A: They are designs inspired from Michael Moorcock's novels about Elric of Melinbone.
Each one represents one of two swords (Stormbringer and Mournblade), Moorcock
writes of, in his books about Elric.
