"Wedgie"
9" x 12" acrylic on paper
This is my submission to the current assignment over at the Rookie Painter.
I think it came out pretty well. I tried a new technique with acrylics and I like the realistic yet "artsy" feel to these lemons.
Ahh, acrylics. How I have missed you!
Until a week ago we, as in my husband, three kids, one dog, and myself, have been living in a tiny RV. The only paint I took with me in the non-existent space in the camper was a palette of dried watercolors. That's why all of my submissions lately have been watercolors.
I like painting with watercolors, I really do. They are fast, usually, and there are lots of options for technique and application.
But I love my acrylics. My $1 a tube "crafters" acrylics I buy at the craft store. I don't know how to use the good stuff and am intimidated to buy the expensive stuff and not know what to do with it.
Ceramcoat will have to do for now!!

Beautiful! So realistic looking - well done, Paula!!
ReplyDeleteVery realistic! Love your background (I fretted on my background, never got it right). You've got convincing light and I like the "splash" of light on the table as well. I'm in love with my acrylics too! Right now, they are my prefered method.
