Two new acrylic painting tips and new works

Recently I had a dent in the canvas I wanted to use when a colleague said that I could remove it by spraying the back of the canvas with clean water.

Another tip I came across recently concerns the quick drying time of acrylic paints. In order to
slow the drying time of a painting you can, again, spray the back of the canvas before you start.

Last week I finished an impressionistic floral resembling pink peonies in a turquoise container sitting under the light of a window.

This week I am working on a square painting of three koi in a pool.

Pink Lady

This floral was started in a workshop with Marianne Bloome. I was excited to learn her background technique.
