I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with trying to figure out acrylics. I mean, you would think I'd try to get better at my less than stellar oil paintings. But, that is a different story.
Actually my hope is that if I post my below average paintings it might spark more to the conversations here. I mean if I can't post this junk, your stuff has to be WAY, WAY better.
This is way out of the norm for me. I don't really paint flowery type stuff. But, all of the dogwood trees around here gave me the urge to paint a pink tree. I understand that compositionally it isn't correct. But, no matter. It was fun to do.
Once the grass layer dries completely, I might add some dandelions. But, for now, I'll just stare at it for a while and see where it takes me.
I like it. The colors are bright and an excellent illustration of our pending Spring. Keep doing what you are doing. I love looking at your work.
Here is the finished version.
There is a lot less pressure in painting what you want and how you want. Good for you!
