Trying to wrap up this painting today - crossed fingers

The title says it all.  I'm still trying to complete this painting.  I'll let you know how it works out.  But, here is a small rant to keep you entertained.  So, picture this tired painter after about seven hours of work and I run out of tape.  So, I have to get that awful s****h masking tape out and use it.  Why, why, why doesn't it come off the roll except in shredded strips?  On top of that it literally stinks.  S T I N K S!!!  Smells like some horrible chemical concoction that Dr. Jekyl would have put together.  The labeling says that it is environmentally friendly…I suppose as compared to their old tape?  But, I have a hard time believing that the chemicals that produce this smell are somehow "better".  So my youngest was kind of enough to go to the store to look for the no-horrible-smell-works-like-a-charm tape by Shurtape.  They don't have it.  So I said get anything  except stinking tape or blue tape.  So, now I have blue tape.  And it stinks.  Back to my brushes.
