Nice thing about acrylics is that I can wash over a section with new paint and essentially do it over. I have a nasty habit of ignoring the background and painting the foreground objects first, which of course leaves me in quite a pickle later when I have all this white space in my painting. So tonight I resolved to just say "what the hell" and go for the background first, which requires me to paint over some of my previous work. You know, in fiction writing class I learned that no matter how cool the paragraph, if it doesn't help the story, it has to go. So here's where I stand right now with this one. You can watch a little video of me working it over by clicking on the picture. |
