    love the colours and details in this one ..the water and clouds have me fascinated

  • thepaintedsoul replied

    This painting was an insane one to do because of the tight deadline. I had four days to pull it together. I barely made it. As I mentioned, it’s on illustration board, so you can get a smooth finish with a paper-based surface, just trickier. : >)

    This is fabulous – just love the clouds – you say this was the first time you used acrylics on paper, but the description says acrylic on acid-free board. What paper do you use?

  • thepaintedsoul replied

    It was an acid-free cold-pressed illustration board which is basically like painting on a cold-pressed paper glued to a board.
