A new medium this time: tube acrylics.
Recently I’ve been doing some reading about acrylics, and I decided to get a set of colors recommended by one of the books I read. I even improvised a set of hooks for them on a bookshelf in my art space.
The texture will take some getting used to. I’ve used liquid acrylics several times in the past, but the thicker stuff mixes differently and goes onto the paper much differently. I also learned that trying to thin it with water doesn’t work very well. So clearly I have some more learning to do.
On the other hand, I like the color combination. This does a nice job of creating the illusion of transparency that’s important to the whole leaf ghost thing.
