Decided to take you with me as I paint this acrylic painting. I began it a couple of days ago and will be working on it for the next few days. I started out just doing the pathway to the beach, but I've decided to add people to it. I rarely do anything with people but recently painted a book cover jacket for a client which required a couple. I liked how it came out and so decided to place a couple here too.
My brother informed me a couple of years ago that I only paint in winter. Seems that is true. Once I begin to long for Spring and Summer, my creative juices begin to flow. So, aside from the commission work, this is my first Winter painting this year.
I've been doing watercolors for the book cover jackets and needed the fun and simplicity of acrylic to settle my soul. They are fun to do because they dry fast (as opposed to "wet on wet" watercolor paintings), and if you want to change it, you can just paint over it.
So, as I bring you with me, I'll keep you posted...we will try the people and if they don't work out, we'll PAINT OVER THEM. Hope you have fun.
