Tipped Over
8x10
acrylic on canvas board
I wanted to try two things when I started this painting; to paint another painting on crackle paste and to use a palate knife. I painted a pear with a palate knife a couple of days ago. That was the first time I have tried using a palate knife. Not knowing what my subject would be, I put the crackle paste on the night before. It did not completely crackle but there was some crackle on an angle. As I studied it, I decided it resembled a vase so I went with that. I added the iris with a palate knife. To achieve this look, I added several layers and let each dry before painting another layer. In the end, I lost the crackle image, but I added bead gel for additional interest.
