Description
An experimental painting, using iridescent (metallic) paint for the first time! This tree is loosely based on a Van Gogh painting.It is heavy body acrylics (Cryla, with a couple of W&N and Liquitex) applied to canvas board with painting knives. The colours used are: Rich Gold (iridescent), ultramarine, zinc white, titanium white, bismuth yellow, cadmium yellow deep, raw umber, nickel titanium yellow and a little olive green. It is 9.5x6 inches. Photographed in strong sunlight to bring out the texture and shine on the gold.
It's worth downloading so that you can really see the texture and finish in detail...
Do let me know what you think!
Dave
