5x7 inches original acrylic
$15,00

I am painting away with these acrylics to do a series of these greeting cards. Working in acrylics is soooooooooo much faster than painting in oils. Everything dries right away and you can easily make corrections and additions. Of course, the colors dry darker and so it is more difficult to to get the contrasts and tones correct. It is all a learning process. But so far I like working with both oils and acrylics. Visit my website to purchase.  SpohnStudio.com
