Video Link:  Palette Knife Demo     Passcode: 9K&S6*9#
The video did not capture the first several minutes of the demo when Janet introduced herself and talked about her art background.  She enjoys painting with a palette knife because it allows her the freedom to be expressive and not worry about being overly detailed.  This has become especially important to her given the frustrations of being more isolated due to the pandemic.
