And on this piece, I basecoated, and then adhered tissue paper to the surface, giving some texture. The acrylic paints I have (have quite a bit from years of this hobby) seem to paint so flat. 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 nicely done. You do have talent to paint!

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!

nice work...I always wished I could paint....just no talent there....my stick people don't even look good!!!

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

That is beautiful....

Very nice! I love to paint as well, just don't have the time right now.

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