acrylic play

y

Girl's head was the size of my thumb print and my brush was way too big. That was stupid.

Acrylics scare me. I never know what I'm gonna get when that stroke dries. How dark is that gonna get? Darker than what I put it down on top of? Who knows?

Does anybody know how to manage that?!

Hopefully I'll have an alkyd sketch page coming up soon too.

Mark, looking cool . . . as for the drying issue . . . just takes painting with it a lot . . . you start to get a feel for it. It is annoying.

Your digital piece below this one makes me SICK! I don't know how in the world you do these so fast . . . they're beautiful! Awesome work man!!!
