| Acrylic paint on 4x4 inch (10.2x10.2cm) Mont Marte canvas board |
Texture was created using Matisse Impasto Medium (bottom
left - shaping with a painting knife and impressing with a plastic lid) and Golden Glass
Bead Gel (top right mostly).
Glazes made up of Atelier Traditional Glazing Liquid (gloss)
mixed with Matisse Structure acrylics approx. 1:1 were painted in a pleasing design. Cobalt Blue, Cobalt
Turquoise and Southern Ocean Blue (1st layer) and several layers of Pathalo
Blue, Cerulean Blue and Diox Purple were used. A final thicker (more paint than glazing
liquid) was added to a few ridge edges (particularly over the diox purple).
This started out as a test but I really like it so I'm
thinking of mounting this on a large square of white board to provide approx. 4
inch (10.2cm) border. I will certainly be painting a larger version too.
