I really want to explore the heavy body acrylic paints but have so many paints, it seems silly to purchase more. I may try the heavy gel gloss medium to see if I can mix with the paints I have for more body.

Note: I have nothing to do with all the words showing up as links (looks like to ebay).

Very cool! I wished I had that talent but I just don't. When I was younger I tried & tried to paint but never was any good at it. You are very talented!

This happens often when words such as sewing machine and acrylic paints etc. are mentioned in posts. Happens on many forums.

If you get around to painting something, be sure to post. Lots of support here, and I'd love to see your work too.
