Acrylic painting

This fall, I took a class in acrylic painting.  We used different mediums such as light moulding paste and glazing medium.

These paintings were done using a palette knife and moulding paste.  I used the Golden paste.  I really enjoyed painting with it.  It gave each piece a lot of texture, which I like.

In this piece, I used the light moulding paste.  I also sprayed the bottom to smooth out the paint.  That way, I got the reflection which I was looking for.

These two pieces also used the method of spraying the piece with water to create an interesting sky.  It looks like rain.




We also worked on some portraits, which I'm still working on.  When I'm done them, I'll add them to this post.
