Walking Santa - miniature
Acrylic on canvas, 5x5 gallery wrapped |
Some new paints arrived in the mail today - and I simply could not wait to use them! So, I sketched out a few Santas, and thought I would just start with acrylics and top off with the new oils. As I worked, I like the feel and mood I was achieving with a very limited palette. I actually grabbed the first yellow, red, blue and green that I put my hands on - and started painting! The result is something out of my ordinary! Instead of topping with oil, I mixed a little molding paste with white acrylic paint - and applied with my palette knife. I painted four of these - all for my new oils - and I will not be using the oils on top of any of them! Guess I'll have to start on a winter landscape to try out those paints! Painting number 720 in 720 days :)
